Energy matrix and its problems



Energy waste, nowdays, is a considerable problem for mankind.

Since the Second Industrial Revolution, when the energy matrix became mineral coal, a huge impact in environment and in society has been observed. In the 1970's, new and renewable energy sources were encouraged, on account of a global petroleum crisis.

The produtions of this renewables energies is smallest than the conventional sources, like power plants. This question is an obstacle for the governments to substitute the more pollutant for clean energey.

Nuclear energy is an renewable source and not polluting (you can reed more about it in http://www.world-nuclear.org/info/Energy-and-Environment/Sustainable-Energy/), but a failure in a nuclear station could generate an evironmental catastrophe.

In short, you can do nothing to change the actual energy matrix; so, in order not to consume a large and dispensable amount of energy, you can follow this tips found on the website below!
