sources such as coal and
. Whilst this was efficient at dramatically increasing the economy in the western world, the natural
has suffered many consequences as a result. Exploitation of fossil fuels has led to land degradation, loss of
and, water and air pollution. Emissions from burning fossil fuels, such as carbon dioxide have led to an enhanced
effect, which in turn has led to anthropogenic
. In recent years, there has been a significant demand for more sustainable energy production, particularly through
energy sources. This includes solar, wind and
power. Other sources of energy include
power, although the sustainability of this source is often contested due to radioactive waste and the
risk associated with production.
