Module 10 Unit 1 A gift for the future Summary writing: Answer these questions in about 150 words. What is sustainable development? What natural resources do we mostly depend on to do things in our daily life? What are the disadvantages of fossil fuels? What alternative energy resources are becoming popular? And why? What is being done to put the idea of sustainable development into practice? Why does the writer say sustainable development is a gift for the future?
Sustainable development is long-term planning which focuses on the environment and preserving natural resources. At present we mostly depend on fossil fuels such as coal gas and oil to produce energy. But fossil fuels are not renewable sources of energy. Besides, burning them contributes to air, water and soil pollution and causes global warming and acid rain. That is why some alternative energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy and hydroelectricity are becoming increasingly popular. Now in many parts of the world , tentative steps are being taken to introduce these forms of renewable energy. The introduction will hopefully help end the systematic destruction of the environment and see renewable energy promoted around the world. This means good things for the future.
