Structure Analysis
This is an analysis of the 2 sources gathered about renewable energy pertaining to its economy. The purpose is to define their views about the topic and how they both support or agree to it. Furthermore, this will allow an individual to develop a better understanding of the sources and their significance to the topic. The validity of the sources will also be analyzed and if they are actually stating facts that are helpful to the topic.
“A wide range of changes in household energy behavior is needed to realize a sustainable energy transition. We propose a general framework to understand and encourage sustainable energy behaviors, comprising four key issues” by Steg Linda, Perlavicuite Goda & Ellen Van der Werff in Understanding the human dimensions of a sustainable energy transition. The author uses examples of illustrative methods, clearly lists the problems that exist, and refers to the global changes, which can be very good to attract the reader's attention. The author's style is give a first question, followed by a solution to the problem. The readers will find it simple to have a better understanding of the context and the purpose of the article. This is of great importance because if readers immediately that what they are reading is senseless, they are going to lose interest.
The structure of this resource is given a solution, followed by the steps required, and then the analysis. There is a logical order of thoughts because it will start talking about a small part of the article and it slowly expands to a more in-depth approach to what renewable energy is all about. Finally, the agenda of the research is given and then give a deeper analysis of the study. The four steps described in the article also fully demonstrate the author's arguments.
1 In the second paragraph of the resource, a few obvious examples and data are given. The first is that greenhouse gases have grown steadily by a factor of 1.5 between 1990 and 2008, all of which are mainly caused by human behavior, The main activities of carbon dioxide are transportation and burning, both of which are a means of consumption for household energy
2 The second big data is that the family through natural gas and electricity, heating, the use of electrical appliances, has occupied 26% of European energy consumption, which reflects the production, the family in the disposal of household consumption of goods and services required energy.
In the resources, there are a lot of data and examples used to support my claim, and these data are from the government or well-known newspapers or magazines that have very strong evidence. In general, the limitations of this resource are extensive and large in scope, analyzing global trends, and some European data.
“Society will eventually adopt renewable energy, since fossil fuels are limited in supply and only created over geologic time. Thus the question is not whether society will shift to renewabl...
