All energy sources have some impact on our environment. Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do
substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution,
damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions.
However, renewable sources such as wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower also have
environmental impacts, some of which are significant.The exact type and intensityof environmentalimpacts varies
depending on the specific technology used, the geographic location, and a number of other factors. By
understanding thecurrent and potential environmentalissues associated with each renewable energy source, wecan
take steps to effectively avoid or minimize these impacts as they become a larger portion of our electric supply.
Harnessing power from the wind is one of the cleanest and most sustainable ways to generate electricity
as it produces no toxic pollution or global warming emissions. Wind is also abundant, inexhaustible, and
affordable, which makes it a viable and large-scale alternative to fossil fuels. Despite its vast potential, there
are a variety of environmental impacts associated with wind power generation that should be recognized and
mitigated. They include land use issues and challenges to wildlife and habitat.
Like wind power, the sun provides a tremendous resource for generating clean and sustainable electricity.
The environmental impacts associated with solar power can include land use and habitat loss, water use, and the
