The exploration and development of safe alternatives to fossil fuels should be the most important global priority today?

 To what extent to you agree or disagree?

Fossil fuels are like hidden treasure that has been given to us by nature so that we can lead a comfortable life. Man has been using these natural reserves since ages but soon will be left with nothing due to rapidly increasing world population and demand.
I completely agree with the notion that safe alternatives to fossil fuels should be explored and developed. Surveys have shown that if people continue to use these resources at the same pace then soon we will be left with nothing. Therefore, there is a dire need of developing and adopting other safe alternatives given to us by Mother Nature such as Sunlight which can be used to produce electricity and for heating purposes, Wave power, wind power, tidal power, Biofuel, Biomass and Hydroelectricity.
On the contrary, there is another school of thought that these renewable resources are offered to us by nature and due to population explosion and global warming, these types of resources are difficult to find and use everywhere. Some places of the world experiences cyclones, floods, tornados whereas other places are dry and hot experiencing drought and bushfires. Moreover, people believe that use of Biomass to produce biofuel will lead to deforestation.
Furthermore, I would like to stress on my point of view, that we can make use of the renewable resources according to the type of weather experienced by that area. Making use of these resources would also help in reducing the problem of global warming.
To conclude, I would like to say that Nature is our mother and teaches us many ways by which we can live a comfortable and healthy life. Judicious use of all these resources will also help in maintaining a balance in nature by replenishing them from time to time.
