<ul style="list-style: none;">
<li><strong>Sustainability:</strong> renewable sources are practically endless at human scale.</li>
<li><strong>Reducing greenhouse gases:</strong> as opposed to fossil fuels, renewable energies produce little or no greenhouse gases.</li>
<li><strong>Reduce pollution:</strong> less air and water pollution compared to conventional energy sources.</li>
<li><strong>Energy security:</strong> diversification of energy sources and reducing the dependence on fossil fuel imports.</li>
<li><strong>Job creation:</strong> development of new industries and creation of jobs in renewable technological sectors.</li>
</ul>
<h3 style="color: #2a2a2a;"><span class="fa fa-thumbs-down" aria-hidden="true"></span> Cons of renewable energies:</h3>
<ul style="list-style: none;">
<li><strong>Intermittence:</strong> certain renewable sources like solar or wind are intermittent as they depend on weather conditions.</li>
<li><strong>Storage:</strong> requires the development of energy storage technologies to counter the intermittence and guarantee continuous electricity provision.</li>
<li><strong>Initial costs:</strong> infrastructures to capture and convert renewable energies requires high initial costs.</li>
<li><strong>Environmental and social impacts:</strong> certain installations, like hydroelectric dams or wind farms can have local environmental or social impacts.</li>

<p>Energy efficiency refers to how much a machine, a device, a system or a process <strong>converts incoming energy in useful work, by minimising energy loss in the form of heat, noise or other unused forms of energy</strong>. This is a key concept in the field of energy and the environment, and it aims at <strong>maximising productive use of energy while reducing total consumption.</strong>.</p>
<p> Energy efficiency can apply to a diversity of sectors such as the industry, transport, construction and domestic appliances. For example, in the industrial sector, energy efficiency can be improved by using more effective technologies, by optimising production processes to reduce energy loss, or by implementing more effective energy management practices.</p>

Maybe we should just use less energy? For example by moving around differently or consuming differently... basically by using all our resources differently.
