Renewable energy can be generated from traditional sources, like wind or solar power, or it can be renewable in a different way. One such form generates electric power from the bacteria that feed on the world’s waste and the gas created by polluting industries.

The discovery of how to "engineer" electric wires to harness that gas was hailed as a way of easing our reliance on carbon-generating energy sources, much of which comes from expensive - and environmentally hazardous - burning coal.

Some renewable energy products that companies offer include:

Safety lights resemble large fiber optic streetlights; they run on solar power, emitting a pearly glow when there is no natural light.

Bikeway benches with built-in blue LEDs powered by solar panels on their roofs; a computer inside each bench keeps track of passing cyclists monitoring their time and distance.

The future is green, and it's looking brighter each day. Environmentally friendly, renewable energy is the way of the future. It doesn't degrade or pollute the environment, it actually benefits it

The industrialization has resulted in a lot of carbon emissions into the atmosphere, and it may result in undesirable climate change. Governments are now trying to find ways to offset that problem. Governments need less polluting energy-generating industries to balance global environmental balance. In recent years we have seen growth in renewables and other alternative types of energy generating methods such as green power, geothermal power, and wind turbines. Renewables have a strong foundation based on three factors including job creation, a lower climate impact as well as improved national security- no imports needed for fossil fuels nor import dependency on foreign economies.

The regenerative construction of homes and communities has increased by three times in the last few years. Renewable energy is an important aspect of the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Solar energy, sunlight, and wind are some of the primary sources that can be used to generate renewable energy.
