Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the world's energy
resources are limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left. However, we also should use them
economically and try to find out alternative sources of power. According to Professor Marvin Burnham of
the New England Institute of Technology, we have to start saving coal, oil and gas before it is too late; and
solar power is the only alternative.
However, many people do not approve of using nuclear power because it's very dangerous. What would
happen if there was a serious nuclear accident? Radioactivity causes cancer and may badly affect the future
generations. The most effective thing is that we should use natural resources as economical as possible.
