Greenhouse gas emission is perceived as one of the major factors behind global warming, and consequently, climate change. The biggest challenge faced by mankind today is to limit its effects and to avoid a grim future with devastating ramifications on life on our planet.

Fossil fuel, which plays a pivotal role in modern-day industrial civilization, is the prime source of greenhouse gases. The implications of fossil fuel on the environment are massive. When burned, they release huge amounts of CO2 into the air. These non-renewable greenhouse gases trap heat in our atmosphere, thereby leading to global warming.

According to global estimates, the fossil fuel reservoirs will be exhausted eventually in the coming centuries, necessitating the development of eco-friendly and renewable energy sources like solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric, ocean energy and biofuel. These energy sources are natural and self-replenishing and have a low-or zero-carbon footprint. As they are in much more abundance, compared to fossil fuels, harnessing the power of renewable energy sources will certainly prove to be the key to a more sustainable future. Apart from these, other less explored renewables like Hydrogen, Lithium are also being considered as viable options that can produce both green and renewable energy.
