About Solar Energy
Solar Energy takes energy from the sun and transforms it into heat and electricity. The solar energy industry has been developing more rapidly in recent years, as it is a completely renewable energy form that doesn't contribute to global warming. It has trouble competing with fossil fuels due to the massive government subsidies that fossil fuels receive as compared to the renewable energy industry.
About Energy
Energy is used to do work. In our modern lives we are more and more preoccupied with finding new sources of energy to heat our buildings and move our machines, including cars. Since the dawn of the 20th century, fossil fuels have been the main way we get energy, but those forms of energy are causing environmental damage and leading to global warming. That is because the burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. New forms of energy are being sought.
