Activity 3.2.3 - Alternative Energy Solar Energy

What does alternate energy mean? Alternate energy means that is alternative energy will not deplete natural resources. The argument behind the use of alternative energy is cost for developing systems that work. 
Solar energy has many advantages for alternative energy. One is that it provides clean and renewable energy. It would reduce the amount of fossil fuel and coal burning that is occurring right now. The reduction would help with pollution created in the areas that coal burning is happening along with the health of workers, and surrounding families that have or are effective. Solar energy would also help with the amount of trees that are cut down and then replanted in areas that coal burning occurs.Solar Energy could as reduce the amount of that you save along with adding value to your home.
Solar energy also has some disadvantages as a use of alternative energy. Although it is not as but as depleting natural resources there is disadvantages. Weather plays a big factor in solar energy. It needs the sun in order to function and if there is a period where there is clouds or a rain the  potential of not getting the fullest advantage of alternative energy use could be impacted. The use of solar energy is provides clean and renewable energy although the materials used could be toxic to the environment and cause pollution. The use of solar energy has its pro and cons but if I could help in not depleting the use of natural resources this would be my alternative method. Once they are depleted there is no re-creating.
