Reader Description

Most of the energy we use today relies on fossil fuels. However, fossil fuels cause pollution, and will eventually run out. We need to look toward renewable sources of energy, which cause less pollution and won't run out.

After you have completed the Reader

There are many forms of renewable energy that we can use instead of fossil fuels like oil and coal. Choose an alternative source of energy such as solar power or bio-fuels. Write a short speech to persuade people to use this renewable energy source. Present your speech to someone in your family. Was your argument persuasive?
