Environmentally sustainable electricity is being generated by turbines driven by tides. 'Green' tidal power could provide all the world's energy needs.

A sustainable source of clean electrical power is the energy in the tides. Several companies are pioneering green generation of electricity with various types of turbine.

Winds can be erratic. The sun doesn't always shine. Growing bio fuels uses land already in short supply for food production. But tidal power can be timed to the minute

Tidal power, as a source of renewable energy, is free of greenhouse gases. Different models of tidal energy generators have varying costs and environmental impacts.

Hydroelectric power is a clean, renewable energy source that can be further tapped to help meet global energy needs in the future, as petroleum becomes scarcer.

With 70 percent of the Earth's surface covered by water, it is certainly feasible that flowing water should be a good source of alternative energy.

Green house gas emissions, fossil fuel shortages and global warming happening now, we must consider nuclear power as a viable technology for our future energy needs.

Simple definitions of the main sources of renewable energy including solar heat, the difference between fossil fuel and biomass; and a description of tidal power.

Using renewable energy sources including tidal power, the Isle of Wight is creating a world model for environmental sustainability with the first Eco Island in the world.

The information technology industry is not known as environmentally friendly. But computer scientists are looking at ways to reduce harm and contribute to sustainability.

As the world tries to find ways of reducing the carbon footprint of humanity, some experiments with ocean waves are showing promise.

Renewable energies, such as wind, solar and hydro, help curb carbon dioxide emissions. Increased use of these alternative energies bodes well for the environment.

Electricity from wind turbines is erratic, making power grids unstable. New batteries with voltage control are being tested to make wind energy more available.

Wind turbines for electricity generation can be mounted on houses, commercial buildings and industrial plants if the wind conditions are correct.
