Climate change poses one of the most significant threats to our planet, and addressing it requires a multifaceted approach. One of the most promising solutions is the transition to renewable energy sources. Unlike fossil fuels, which release large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal produce little to no emissions. This makes them crucial in the fight against climate change.
