SEATTLE, April 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Climate change is one of the most dangerous and pressing issues today, which has the potential to disrupt human life globally. Although there are some scientists who do not agree with this term, it is agreed by the majority of them that this phenomenon does occur and is being caused primarily by human activities.
Greenhouse gases are produced when you burn fossil fuels like petrol, coal, or natural gas for energy production, resulting in the emission of carbon dioxide. The process of carbon emission is believed to be the main cause behind global warming. A major result of this is a rise in the earth s temperature, which makes the planet feel warmer.
What should our electricity future look like?
The February winter storm that devastated the State of Texas was damaging for a myriad of reasons. Not only did the storm cost hundreds of lives and left millions without water, heat, or electricity, but when the dust settles it is anticipated to be the most expensive disaster to ever hit Texas. Hurricane Harvey, which cost the state over $125 billion due to its devastation of the Houston area, will likely be eclipsed by the damage done by this one unseasonably freezing week of winter weather, with some estimates exceeding $200 billion[1].
In the early stages of the storm, the news cycle was dominated by fingers pointing blame at natural gas and wind turbines, questioning their reliability as power sources. While it was unfair to use either as a scapegoat, it called into question a larger issue: what should the future of electricity in the United States (as well as other parts of the world) look like?
