Disadvantage: butning fossil fuels for the environment degrades it and contributes to global warming

Hydroelectric:

Advantage: Hydroelectric power can be created 24/7 indefinitely assuming that the body of water it is utilizing never runs dry. It is also another absolutely clean source of energy.

Disadvantage: The turbines and dams that are built on the rivers or streams interrupt the natural flow of the fish and other wildlife that lives in the area.

Solar energy:

Advantage: Solar power helps to slow/stop global warming. Global warming threatens the survival of human society, as well as the survival of countless species.

Disadvantage: the sun doesn't shine 24 hours a day ao it can supply you with energy at night

The middle pleistocene and the late pleistocene correspond to which cultural periods?
Crank

The middle stone age and the later stone age corresponds to the middle and the late pleistocene.

Cultural evolution during the middle and the late pleistocene :-

In southwestern Asia as well as northern and southern Africa, personal ornaments in the form of perforated seashells are recorded from the early Late Pleistocene. In the Old World, Neanderthals and anatomically modern humans are linked to a range of personal ornamentation by about 40,000 years ago (Ka). These include fully created ornaments as well as organically modified things. The appearance of figurative art, mythical imagery, and other types of items, like as musical instruments, at various times in history suggest that completely modern behavior began to emerge more gradually towards the middle of the Late Pleistocene and most definitely no later than 40 Ka. Many, but not all, of the lengthy and rigorous history of study might well have helped to the relevant data come from Europe.
