Solar energy is harvesting and using the energy of the sun to power a home, business, or greenhouse. This would significantly cut back on the usage of electricity and would save thousands of dollars (Denchak). Although many people cannot afford to replace their energy source with the solar panels. Using less fossil fuels, like gas or coal, is another great way for people to help prevent global warming (Denchak). Many people have switched over to cars that are recharged instead of filled up with gas. This might be a problem because there are not many stations someone can stop at to charge their car while on the road. Gas stations however are found quite often making gas a more convenient choice over the chargeable battery. The best way a person can help prevent global warming is trying day in and out to live an eco-friendly lifestyle (Denchak).
