Question

Are There Any Safer Alternatives For Electricity Besides Coal or Nuclear Energy?

Answer 1

solar collector satellites that transmit electricity to retenna farms on the ground.

Answer 2

Wind turbines?

Hydropower?

loads. just look for em.

Answer 3

uuumm idk but do you use florescent light bulbs.....

Answer 4

Wind Power, A school in Michigan set up a wind farm as a project and it was so successful that they end up having extra electricity that they sell back to Consumers Energy.  A win - win situation.  So there are totally feasible alternatives.

Answer 5

yes , solar power is the most misused of all resources and the generators that use diesel fuel to give us power could be run on boidiesel or etanol or a mix  except if you produced your own power using pure biodiesel (b100) your be breaking the law thanx to the oil companies

Answer 6

stick a solar heat generator in death valley, and the saharan desert, and australia. Ever heard of the company called Plasco?  How about wave generators? Buildings whose architechture makes them produce its one solar and wind energy . The building itself IS the generator. Photo voltaic wall and/or roof tiles. Cars that produce their own hydrogen from a thier water tanks, and then the exhaust(water) goes back into the tank again, only to be seperated again and once again produce hydrogen to be burned. You'll never have to fuel or charge your car. AND, your car will also have higher combustion, AND more horse power. And the good news is; that you don't have to do too many changes to your existing gasoline burning, and guzzling car in order for it to utilize water(hydrogen). And best news of all-- ZERO EMISSIONS!

So, if this don't get to happen, it's because some powerhungry ---backwards person went out of his way to keep it from happening-maybe by, buying out the patten to keep this from being manufactured. But, if you knew how to safely do it yourself he'd be SOL.

So before u scrap what you thought was your obsolete gas burner car, check into it a little more, before u scrap it.

Answer 7

wind energy

Answer 8

Solar, wind, biomass, and hydropower are all alternatives.

Answer 9

Its' a question of demand and volume.Its' difficult with present day technology to supply all of our needs with just solar,wind,biofuels,etc.It helps.The only good way with present day tech is safe nuke plants (coal is to dirty but could be used to make materials for consumers).I once read about a lower-yielding but safer nuke plant-put the nuke pellets in carbon spheres that can't melt down.I'm sure if we tried we could dig a deep enough hole in the earth where it couldn't bother anything for millions of years.

Answer 10

Loads, unfortunately most of em don't work

Answer 11

Solar power, wind power, hydroelectricity/micro hydro, Tree farms, geothermal heat,  biomass and biofuels
