Why Should Solar Energy Be Used?

We're facing many challenges these days, but one of the ones that affects each and every one of us, to some extent or another, is pollution resulting from the ever-increasing amount of carbon emissions being released into the atmosphere and the resultant global warming.
Global warming is one of the prime motivators in the rapid increase in interest in the adoption of all forms of renewable energy and the push behind the even more rapid increase in the use of solar energy as a means to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. Doing so will reduce the amount of greenhouse gases being emitted and hopefully slow down, and maybe even halt, the further devastation caused by global warming.
Solar v Fossil Fuels - Battle Of The Giants!
The great thing about solar energy is that it is free energy that comes to us consistently, day in, day out, from the sun, so it's just a matter of tapping into that free energy. Not only that, it doesn't cause any pollution. Compare that with fossil fuels, the supply of which is diminishing rapidly and which cause massive amounts of pollution.
The rise in the cost of fossil fuels is directly impacting us, the consumers, in the form of ever-increasing electricity bills, among other things. That's one of the reasons so many people are becoming more interested in taking advantage of solar technology by having a solar electric system installed in their home to reduce, or even eliminate, these increasingly burdensome electricity bills.
Solar electric systems have no moving parts and do not produce any carbon emissions, so, not only do they result in lower electricity bills, but reduced pollution and, hopefully, a halt to global warming.
Overabundance Of Energy
The sun supplies solar energy every day - even on the most cloudy days - and, in fact, provides several thousand times more energy in one day than the whole planet uses in one year. We're currently tapping into a minute fraction of the solar energy available to us, but, fortunately, most countries and governments are now waking up to the real threat presented by carbon emissions and the incredible opportunity solar energy presents.
The number of applications being powered by solar energy is increasing rapidly, and now extends to transportation, including boats, planes and, although this technology is still in its infancy and is basically experimental, cars.
All this will increase our use of solar energy and reduce the amount that goes to waste, but we're still only scratching the surface.
A Solar Future
There's little doubt that all forms of renewable energy will become more prevalent in the future, which can only benefit both us and the planet. But, the renewable that will get the most attention will probably be solar, just because of the massive potential it holds for good.
Solar energy is already infiltrating our daily lives, as we see more and more rooftops with solar panels on them, and you don't have to wait long before you see or read or hear a news item related to solar. This will only increase in the future, as more and more everyday uses are found for solar energy, and that has to be a good thing.
There are many reasons why we should and do use solar energy, but the most pressing one is the increase in pollution caused by fossil fuels and the resultant impact on life and the planet in the form of global warming. Now is the time for us to wean ourselves off our dependence on fossil fuels and take advantage of the sun's abundant energy. After all, it's there for us to use, so let's do just that.
