The concept of renewable energy has gained significant attention in recent years to reduce the dependence on fossil fuels and combat climate change. Solar, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal and biomass are examples of renewable energy sources. These sources are considered renewable because they can be replenished naturally, unlike fossil fuels, which take millions of years to form and are finite. One of the main advantages of renewable energy is that it is environmentally friendly. Renewable energy sources do not produce greenhouse gases, which contribute to climate change. They also do not produce harmful air pollutants like sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide.
What is renewable energy?
What are the examples of renewable energy sources?
What is the main advantage of renewable energy?
Give two examples of harmful air pollutants.
Poem
Sometimes I feel all thin inside
Insufficient, small;
I feel when people look at me,
They don’t see me at all.
I feel that all my beauty’s lost
On cold, indifferent eyes
And offering what I want to give
Would only be unwise.
But then a friend will greet me.
And my inner life will bloom
It only takes but one kind word
To sweep away the gloom!
What does 'indifferent' mean?
What is this poem about?
What does the poet feel sometimes?
