Your neighbor Mr. Turner doesn't think that alternative energy resources like water, wind, or solar are important. "Why not just

do what we have always done," he asks. Justify the use of alternative energy resources instead of fossil fuels with at least one real life example to help him understand.

Burning fossil fuels emits a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, contribute to acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter.

However, the use of solar panels is environment friendly. Solar power is renewable at absolutely no cost to supply energy infinitely.  Also, it is very low maintenance. Once installed, the solar power system can last twenty to thirty years.

Similarly wind (turbines) and water (hydroelectric power plants) are an endless source of energy without negatively affecting the environment.

Answer:

I could tell Mr. Turner that burning fossil fuels emit a number of air pollutants that are harmful to both the environment and public health. Sulfur dioxide emissions, primarily the result of burning coal, participate in acid rain and the formation of harmful particulate matter. However, the use of solar panels is environment friendly. Solar power is renewable at absolutely no cost to supply energy infinitely.  Also, it is very low maintenance. Once installed, the solar power system can last twenty to thirty years.
