People use energy to run machines, heat and cool their homes cook, give light, and transport people and products from place to place. Most energy nowadays comes from fossil fuels—petroleum, coai, and natural gas. However, burning fossil fuels causes pollution. Also, if we don't find new kinds of energy, we will use up all the fossil fuels in the twenty-first century. Scientists are working to find other kinds of energy for the future. What might these sources of energy be?Energy from the wind All over the world, people use the power of the wind. It turns windmills and moves sailboats. It is a clean source of energy, and there is lots of it. Unfortunately, if the wind does riot blow, there is no wind energy.Energy from water WTien water moves from a high place to a lower place, it makes energy. This energy is used to create electricity. In-Brittany, France, for example, waterpower produces enough energy to 1ight a town of 40,000-peopIe. Waterpower gives energy without pollution. However, people have to build dams to use this energy. Darns cost a lot of money, so water energy is expensive..Enger form the earth There is heat in rocks under the earth. Scientists use this heat to make geothermal energy. San Francisco gets half of the energy it needs from geotherrnai power. This kind of energy is cheap, but it is possible only in a few places in the world.Energy form the sun solar panels on the roofs of houses can turn energy from the sun into electricity.

People use energy to run machines, heat and cool their homes cook, give light, and transport people and products from place to place. Most energy nowadays comes from fossil fuels—petroleum, coai, and natural gas. However, burning fossil fuels causes pollution. Also, if we don't find new kinds of energy, we will use up all the fossil fuels in the twenty-first century. Scientists are working to find other kinds of energy for the future. What might these sources of energy be?Energy from the wind All over the world, people use the power of the wind. It turns windmills and moves sailboats. It is a clean source of energy, and there is lots of it. Unfortunately, if the wind does riot blow, there is no wind energy.Energy from water WTien water moves from a high place to a lower place, it makes energy. This energy is used to create electricity. In-Brittany, France, for example, waterpower produces enough energy to 1ight a town of 40,000-peopIe. Waterpower gives energy without pollution. However, people have to build dams to use this energy. Darns cost a lot of money, so water energy is expensive..Enger form the earth There is heat in rocks under the earth. Scientists use this heat to make geothermal energy.
