    Alternative energy is a term used for some energy source that is an alternative to using fossil fuels. Generally, it indicates energies that are non-traditional and have low environmental impact. The term alternative is used to contrast with fossil fuels according to some sources, and some sources may use it interchangeably with renewable energy.

    eg:

    Biomass

    Geothermal

    Solar energy

    Wind energy

    Wave Power

    Also hydrogen is being experimented as a source of energy. Hydrogen wen burns in the presence of oxigen gives high amounts of energy and this is a clean source of fuel as the only thing left out is water...!! Amazing !! haha....nuclear tech is being studied too, but the wastes are harmful too!!

    There are many alternate energy sources, some already in use and others being studied.

    Hydroelectric power

    nuclear energy

    Solar power

    geothermal

    wind generators

    biomass fuel - from plant and animal waste

    Changing cars to hybrids and/or solar powered battery cars

    You can do a search for alternate energy sources and find lots of sites to tell you more.

    Bingo. Bush is not "just jealous" however. Bush is defending American Imperialism and Chavez with his popularity and insight is a serious threat. They tried to overthrow his government in 2001 and have continued to demonize him and undermine his government ever since. This is nothing new and certainly not a tactic the Neocons invented. People who make that claim are either uninformed and or hopelessly naive. American Imperialism didn't start with the Bush administration and will not end once he leaves office

    Solar and nuclear. Most other advanced countries in Europe and Japan already use a lot of nuclear, but the US is held back by environmental fear-mongers. It's actually safe and clean.
