    About this ebook

    There are a lot of energy that we can  harness if we only seek to research and develop the technologies needed to do so. We can get away from the fossil fuels and the old electrical grids by turning to alternatives to these energy sources.

    One of these alternative energy resources is wind power. Wind turbines continue to be developed that are progressively more energy efficient and less costly. “Wind farms” have been springing up in many nations, and they have even become more strategically placed over time so that they are not jeopardizing birds as former wind turbines did.

    Another alternative energy resource is the one that is most well known: solar energy. This involves the manufacturing of solar cells which gather and focus the energy given off directly by the sun, and translate it into electricity or, in some cases, hot water. As with wind energy, solar energy creates absolutely zero pollution.

    Ocean wave energy is seen by governments and investors as having enormous energy generating potential. A generator in France has been in operation for many years now and is considered to be a great success, and the Irish and Scots are running experimental facilities.

    Hydroelectric power has been with us for a while and where it is set up, it is a powerful generator of electricity and cleaner than a grid. However, there are certain limitations to the availability of the right places to set up a large dam. Many run-of-the-river, or small and localized, hydroelectric generators have been set up in recent times due to this limitation.

    Geothermal energy is extremely abundant, since it lies directly beneath our feet, just a few miles below the earth's surface. This energy is produced by the heating of water through the actions of earth's fantastically hot molten core. The water turns to steam, which can be harnessed and used to drive turbine engines which in turn generate electricity. Great amounts of research and development should be put into geothermal energy tapping.

    Waste gas energies, which are essentially methane, reverse the usual energy-pollution relationship by creating energy from waste that lies in the dumps and from some air pollutants. This gas is used in fuel cells and can be used in standard gasoline generators.

    Ethanol is a gasoline substitute and is created from such things as wheat, sugarcane, grapes, strawberries, corn, and even wood chips and wood cellulose. There is controversy over this fuel with regards to its ever becoming truly economical or practical except in very localized areas, but technologies for its extraction and admixturing are continuously being refined.

    Biodiesel energy is created out of the oils contained in plants. So far, the commercial stores of biodiesel have been created using soybean, rapeseed, and sunflower oils. At the time of this writing, biodiesel is typically produced by entrepreneurial minded individuals or those who want to experiment with alternative energy, but commercial interest from companies is on the rise. It burns much cleaner than oil-based diesel.

    Atomic energy is created in atomic energy plants using the process of nuclear fission. This energy is extremely efficient and can generate huge amounts of power. There is concern from some people about what to do with the relatively small amount of waste product atomic energy gives off, since it is radioactive and takes hundreds of years to decay into harmlessness.

    We always strive hard to make sure, our books are easily accesible to everyone out there willing to learn more about "Alternative Energy" . We give prioirty to our ebook price, the price is specially set considering both group of people, working and non working.

    Sid is a loving son, caring brother, fond of animals ( has got 4 dogs ) and a person who loves to spread happiness around. When he has got no work, you will see him spending time with his 4 brothers (dogs). He loves to play guitar and drums as well. At times you will notice him trying to ape his favorite Skrillex, Alex Mtch, Noisycat. Sid is a multi- talented, gifted boy who has done Post Graduation in Computers from University of Melbourne and Bachelors from Massachussets Institute of Technology, Texas, United States. He always firmly believed to create his own foot prints for others to follow than to follow other`s foot prints.  In the process he was let down several time by friends turned envy, coming across scammers, poltroon freaks try to suck happiness out of your life, he has seen the worst phase of life but he kept 100% faith in his hardwork, with 3 D`s, Dedication, Determination and Devotion.By the age of 17th, he made his 1st million and since then there had been no turning back.. He is a stock trader, blogger, affiliate marketer, author of best selling fiction and non- fiction books on several epub think tanks. He has been ranked 5th on most admired teen of South Asia and his books have been rated in New York Best Selling author. He believes with the birth of Internet Technology, it has become very easy for an individual to gain knowledge on any topic but people are too busy to search for it.  He firmly believes knowledge should be spread and if there is something which can be beneficial for others, share it.  This is one another reason why his books are kept @ $.99 so that it can be afforded by everyone.  People living on disability income, employed, unemployed, teens, school going kids. He further guesses there comes a phase in every one`s life when they can without thinking can spend $.99. A double cheeze hamburger costs much more than his books (lol).  So in short, Sid is a guy who loves to share knowledge with nothing expected in return.  It is highly recommended to look for a solution to any problem first in his ebooks, than to shed couples of hundreds of dollars ( your hard earned money) for the piece of information easily available for $.99
