Clean energy
Clean energy is a broad term to describe types of energy generated without producing pollution or greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide. Types of clean energy include solar, wind, hydro, tidal, and geothermal energy. The use of clean energy reduces negative environmental impacts that come with fossil fuels and helps reduce climate change.
