'''Renewable energy''' is energy from a source which can be managed so that it is not subject to [[depletion]] in a [[human timescale]]. Sources include the [[sun]]'s rays, wind, waves, rivers, tides, [[biomass]], and [[Geothermal power|geothermal]]. Renewable energy does not include energy sources which are traditionally thought to be dependent upon limited [[natural resource|resource]]s, such as [[fossil fuels]] and [[nuclear power|nuclear fission power]]. New technology (The [[Fischer-Tropsch process]]), however, may make these limited resources more widely available. The problem will then be dealing with the side-effects of burning [[hydrocarbons]], namely [[global warming]] and [[acid rain]]. Solutions such as a [[carbon dioxide sink]] may help prevent the buildup of excess carbon in the atmosphere which could potentially cause a slowing of the [[North Atlantic Gyre]] [http://www.nasa.gov/centers/goddard/news/topstory/2004/0415gyre.html]. |
