Environmental issues with energy

As people get more aware of the environmental issues, the demand of sustainable products will rise. Many companies believes that as you get more environmental friendly, the level of competitiveness will decline. This is not the case as the authors of the article “Why sustainability is now the key driver of innovation” describe. They believe that

is the world's second largest and most populated continent after Asia. With 1.0 billion people as of 2009 accounting for about 14.72% of the entire human population. Africa suffers from many environmental problems including deforestation, oil pollution, air pollution, and land and water pollution. This issues is as a result of new technologies leading to an increase in solid mineral mining, oil exploration, an increase in the number of plants and factories, and on the whole increase in the application

products. Week 9: Energy (28 April 2016) Presentation by Dr Kyle Catchpole and Professor Ken Baldwin this week is focused on energy. Dr Kyle Catchpole start with renewable energy and she mentions about the potency of renewable energy in Australia such as wind turbine, and solar energy. In recent year renewable energy are cheaper due to the improvement of technology. The second presenter talks about future energy in Australia and the world, he stated that spectrum of energy

In addition, Sanders has been the most aggressive voice on the environmental issue comparing to the Republican politicians, according from Sander’s webpage, “It is an embarrassment that Republican politicians, with few exceptions,

nuclear energy is produced without incident, the science itself creates vast quantities of toxic waste, which is impossible to discard” (Dupea, n. pag.). Because of the fact that there is no way to safely dispose of nuclear energy and waste, many issues have arose. There are many more safe and more reliable sources and ways to produce energy that involves less risks. Countries need to eliminate the use of nuclear energy due to the problems it causes. Some of the largest issues with nuclear energy are
