Putting a gradual end to fossil-fuel based sources from the energy mix and replacing it with renewables is the demand of wisdom, a lecturer at Sharif University of Technology said.
“Not only does generating energy from natural gas and oil harm air quality, but also power plants which run on fossil fuels have low efficiency given the huge amounts of energy they use,” Hashem Oraee was quoted as saying by ILNA.
Most countries, industrial or otherwise, are slowly shifting to green energy for producing power as they realize and struggle with the scale and scope of ecological disasters (namely global warming) caused by oil, he noted.
Excessive use of fossil fuels have (over the last 30 years) has been exposed as a major health and pollution problem with catastrophic consequences.
