Criticts

Critics could have various opinions on changing the world to solar energy. Some may say that there is no need for it and that we can harness energy through other forms of energy such as nuclear fission/fussion and biofuels. Some may say that the cost to turn the world to solar energy may be too much and that the economy might not be able to handle this change. Some critics may say that the amount of time it takes to pay-back for the cost of solar panels is too long and is not worth the initial cost. But the bottom line is this: the world needs to change its source of energy. No longer can we rely on fossil fuels to run the world. Soon enough the entire world will be depleted of fossil fuels and we'll have no where else to turn to run our daily lives. Dr. McCusker of the University of Michigan says, "With estimates showing global power consumption tripling by 2050, we need to have scalable approaches that balance cost efficiency with environmental stewardship. Only solar energy can be scalable to the amounts required." While biofuels and nuclear fussion are also alternative forms to energy, we already have a succesful form of renewable energy; solar energy. Solar energy runs on sunlight which the world has an abundunce of and will not run out of for hundreds of thousands of years and solar energy will not damage the enviornment in any way. If we already have a succesful form of alternative energy then it is time to harness this and change the entire world to run on it.
