Name Course Professor Date Introduction Since the industrial revolution in 17th century technology has been evolving decades after decades. The population also has had a majored outburst thus calling for the more sustainable source of incomes and food. As a result more industries were opened to meet the growing demand for products and services. With more industries being opened the need for more energy was imminent. This led to the innovation of engines and machines that used fossil fuel to operate. This innovation was welcomed with open hands as it seemed to be the solution to energy problems. But it wasn’t long before scientist discovered the depletion of fossil fuel reservoirs. Similarly the oil industry was hit by another major blow that is called global warming. This concern raised issues such as climate change that led to the extinction of animal and plant species as well as a reduction that will not and does not depend on the weather like wind and solar energy. Conclusion There is a large possibility that ocean energy is the sustainable and reliable source of green energy. Wave energy and Ocean thermal energy conversion are constantly available ocean energy and therefore provide a reliable and sustainable source of power. With the onset of technology ocean current has a high a potential to be explored fully so as to reduce the amount of CO2 being released yearly. Figures Fig 1. en.wikipedia.org Work cited Bedard R.
