What is Green (aka Renewable or Clean) Energy?
Green (aka “clean,” or “renewable”) energy is the term used to describe sources of energy that do not cause pollution or other damage to the environment. Examples include tidal, wave, geothermal, wind, solar, and hydro. The term renewable comes from the fact that the source of the energy is, for all intents and purposes, never-ending, e.g., the heat from the sun or the kinetic energy of the earth’s and moon’s revolutions.
PS: Here’s an infographic that depicts the history of renewable energy at a glance.
