Proponents of renewable energy argue that it does not run out, but this advantage is negated by the fact that it is unreliable due to its dependence on changing weather conditions. It is far more costly than other alternative energy sources such as nuclear power and hydroelectricity. Renewable energy is also not as environmentally friendly as it might seem — the expanded use of wind power in particular often necessitates the clearing of forests and the disruption of aquatic habitats. Solar power is good in small doses but is too dependent on weather conditions to be used for the entire energy grid. Nuclear power and natural gas are the future.
