Generating electricity by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil, or gas) produces greenhouse gases that trap the Sun's heat.
There are alternative ways of generating electricity that can be less harmful to the environment.
Electricity can be produced from sustainable sources that won’t run out, such as sunlight and wind.
Hydroelectricity is a sustainable source that is generated by the power of moving water.
