how can i write an essay that discusses whether you believe that your local power company is doing enough to reduce dependence o
n nonrenewable energy sources. This type of essay is called an argument essay, because its purpose is to allow the author to argue a specific idea, or claim.
I think one would have to do some research first on what is the main source of power for most of the inhabitants of a place is it hydo-electricity or say a coal-powered plant or a nuclear plant say. If it is hydro-power in itself this is probably a good thing as it is renewable as long as we decrease global warming so that the glaciers and snowfields which feed our reservoirs don't melt too fast or can accumulate in colder winters but also we should consider the new projects of the power company like the Site C dam in northern BC, Canada that will flood a very fertile valley and ancestral lands of the First Nations and even when that power is not necessary for quite a few years. Whether the power company is investigating other power sources like wind farms and making improvements to such sources is also important.
You can start by listing all energy sources that are nonrenewable and by that you choose two. Start by describing them what your company has been doing and then search for ways on how to reduce their usage. What may be your suggestion, base on your research, that would still produce energy equal to that of the nonrenewable energy that they used.
A renewable energy source is a natural resource on Earth that can be naturally replenished in a short period of time. Wind is considered clean and renewable because it will not produce harmful pollutants or emissions and won't harm our ecosystem!
