Fossil fuels have dominated the energy mix of both developed and developing countries since the industrial revolution. Fuel price instability, increasing costs, climate change, as well as efforts to reduce pollution, have led to an unprecedented investment in renewable energy sources in recent times globally. Fossil fuels are a major contributor to the surge in carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere, causing air pollution that causes the death of significant number of people every year.
It may not be too late to mitigate some of the significant impact of climate change. It will need many interventions, primarily expansion and investment in clean technologies and local actions on city and regional level; for example, upgrading public transport, improvements in energy efficiency, and sustainable city planning. In this article the focus is on the fastest growing ren

Photo taken on May 8, 2021 show the water level at China s Three Gorges Dam reached an all-time high of 157.99 meter. The water line is planned to recede to the 145-meter limit to prevent flooding in rainy season. Three Gorges Dam will discharge water during the low-water season each year to spare the flood control space in the reservoir which must remain empty during the flood season.
