Question

Evaluate the importance of alternative energy solutions to Jamaica and the Caribbean (MUST DISAGREE)

Answer 1

Hello. You did not specify which alternative energy solutions the question refers to, so I wrote about it on a general basis, disagreeing, as you asked. I hope it helps.

Answer and Explanation:

Although alternative energy sources are an important topic to be discussed, especially in relation to the low environmental impact that these energies have, we cannot associate them as a lifeline for the use of energy from any territory, especially territories with low economic conditions such as Jamaica and the Caribbean.

The use of alternative energies requires research and installation and maintenance, which usually requires large sums of money. In environments with fluctuating economic conditions such as Jamaica and the Caribbean, this expenditure is often not promising, which ends up ruling out the availability to adopt this type of energy source. In addition, if these energy sources are adopted, they will not be made available for the entire territory, creating energy concentration points and not solving any supply problem. In addition, maintenance can be precarious, causing old methods of energy sources to be favored.
