Greening the Energy Industry

For decades the world has relied mostly to fossil fuels for its energy supply, and we can no longer deny the adverse effects of this to our environment and even to public health. The global warming for example is linked to the increase of carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. And among the effects of global warming are climate change and extinction of wild life.

What many countries strive nowadays is to find alternatives to fossil fuels particularly oil and coal. The greening of energy industry is set to change and restore our environment which we all aspire for a cleaner and greener environment. But the question is, if oil is on its way out, what will be in? Since the world needs clean green energy thus it is now one of the flourishing industries today.

The growth of renewable energy industry is very important in environment conservation. If the world focuses on developing our renewable energy sources, then the target of reducing carbon footprint by 2050 is achievable. By that time nations are almost completely decarbonized. In the Philippines they are now developing renewable energy to increase energy efficiency, and maximize the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. And like developed countries, the country now provides great deals for renewable energy investors. Biosphere Technology is just among the renewable energy sources being developed in the Philippines. This technology is a waste to energy system that handles wastes in efficient and environmental manner.
