    The document discusses renewable energy and its utilization. It notes that while renewable energy sources are abundant, harnessing them requires infrastructure with initially high costs compared to fossil fuels. However, renewable energy operations have much lower running costs. If renewable energy became the primary energy source, it would lead to a cleaner environment with less pollution and a more sustainable income source for society. Society would experience less global warming and cheaper costs of living. The transition to renewable energy as the main source could happen gradually or over a short period. Overall, renewable energy as the primary source could help resolve environmental problems and support a better standard of living, though society will continue seeking solutions to new issues that may arise.

    Renewable Energy

    Renewables, this term is widely known around the world as one of the energy sources that

    never run out, an abundant source of energy in our surroundings waiting to be harness for it

    will become useful for the society. Significance and advantages renewable energy offers a

    promising and better way of living shortly when the world adapts and aids to the call of the

    renewable energy advocates. However, harnessing those renewables requires the construction

    of specific structures and instruments wherein the initial cost is quite high compared to the

    other sources of energy, though the running cost of these renewables is way too small

    compared to the operational cost of fossil fuels. Disregarding the disadvantages of these

    renewables, and consider renewable energy systems as the primary source of energy, what

    would be the face of the world in the future? Would this case affect society’s approach to a

    better standard of living?

    In my perspectives and initial understandings, there are two possible cases which are in terms

    of transition. First are the gradually changing sources of energy from conventional to

    renewable, and second is that there is only a small period in transition. On the other hand, it is

    common sense that the world can’t afford it. Therefore, we focus on the renewables that are

    gradually proving themselves as a sustainable source of energy and possible to be the primary

    source of energy, it is safe to say that society could eventually cope up and benefit from the

    changes the world has done. What is society’s definition of better standard living in the

    conventional energy source (fossil fuels)? In our daily lifestyle today, we are depending on
    the energy production by fossil fuels, from the electricity in our home, transportation to work,

    up to the business place, and what we wanted is the continuous supply of that energy for us to

    keep on moving and to keep on living a good life. Society views a better world that has; no

    pollution; have clean air; safe surroundings; a greener environment: and a sustainable source

    of income, that is the definition of the society to a better standard of living in the world that

    the fossil fuels are the primary source of energy. What if the main source of the energy that

    we are using will be renewables? wherein the world is running into clean energy, less

    pollution, a stable supply of electricity, efficient transportation, a safe environment, and a

    stable source of income. What would be the approach of the society?

    In a world that renewables are the primary source of energy, society will be experienced less

    global warming and eventually resolved the problem, this is because society will be less

    dependent on the produced energy of different powerplant that depends on burning fossil

    fuels which emit harmful gases that causes the climate change. The world of renewables will

    make the cost of life way much cheaper compared to the life we are in right now, it provides

    a lot of work and opportunities in terms of construction, manufacturing, operation and

    maintenance, transports and logistics, financials, and legal consent that makes the society to

    have a sustainable source of income. Renewables as the primary source of energy, lessen the

    harmful chemicals being dump in the bodies of water and even buried inside the earth, this

    movement will transform the environment we live in into a balanced and greener that can

    support the needs of billion people living in the planet.

    In analyzing the situation and the fact that society has no ending desires, even we achieve

    what we define as a better standard of living, there are still problems that exist and need to be

    resolve in our society. Take, for example, the industrial revolution before it began, society’s

    approach to a better standard of living is that they wanted to make their work much easier, to

    have a sustainable source of electricity, to travel faster in the land, water, and air. Those have
    been achieved but society has never been satisfied. Therefore, I can conclude that society will

    continue to find answers, and what will they find is the problems that will exist in the life of

    renewable energy. -A new way of living starts a new way of dreaming: A society’s approach

    to a better standard of living under renewable energy as the primary source.
