My Google Alerts is
focused on finding articles about renewable energy. The most common hits are
about the World Future Energy Summit that is currently taking place in Abu
Dhabi. This summit is very important this year for America since Iran is threatening
to close the Strait of Hormuz, which will cause oil imports to plummet and
prices to greatly increase. According to a recent poll, eighty-five percent of
Americans are concerned about energy security. Many are concerned that the lack
of energy supply will eventually cause international conflicts and possibly
wars. Americans want the energy companies to use more alternative methods to
supply their energy. The UN Secretary General wants to double the world’s use
of renewable energy by 2030. If world powers such as the United States, China,
and many of the European countries, focus on investing in renewable energy,
then we can double the use of renewable energy by 2020 hopefully.
