One of the biggest challenges the human race faces today is finding and
using alternative energy sources. The push for means of generating
electricity has been around for over 100 years, but when oil and coal-
fired generators produced power inexpensively, the world put the search
for alternative energy sources on the back burner for a number of years.
We cannot procrastinate any longer, however, as many of the earth's
natural resources, such as oil, are depleting.
A Short History Lesson on Alternative Energy Sources
The need for an alternate energy source was rekindled in the 1970's
with the oil shortage that created lines at gas stations and produced
critical shortages throughout the United States. The search for
alternate power generation is not limited to finding new ways of
powering vehicles, as supplying cheap power for homes and industries is
a continuous endeavor. There have been many advances in the search for
alternative energy sources, but the price of the power produced still
remains too high....
