Read the following passage and decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
We use many different energy sources for the sake of us. Energy sources are classified into two groups: non-renewable and renewable.
Non-renewable energy sources are those that take millions of years to form and will run out some day. It is energy that comes from fossil fuels such as coal, crude oil, and natural gas. Fossil fuels are mainly made up of carbon and were formed millions of years ago. The chemical reaction which takes place when we burn fossil fuels releases carbon compounds such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide into the air. Carbon dioxide is one of the green house gases which is contributing to global warming and air pollution.
On the other hand, renewable energy sources will never run out, are better for the environment and do not cause pollution. Renewable energy is often called green energy because it is a natural energy, always available and does not have to be formed like non-renewable energy. The green energy is always there. For example, the Sun consistently shines, water is abundant, and the wind blows throughout the year. The five types include solar energy from the Sun; geothermal energy from heat within the Earth; hydroelectric energy from moving water; biogas from dead plants and microorganisms and finally, energy from the wind.

Hello students. Today I'd like to tell you some information about types and sources of energy. Energy is classified into two main groups: renewable and non-renewable.The energy generated from natural sources such as the sun, wind, rain, and tides is called renewable energy. They are plentiful and can be generated again and again. They also have low carbon emissions, so they are considered green and environment-friendly. Moreover, using renewable energy can reduce your electricity bills. Unfortunately, solar energy can be only used during the daytime but not during night or the rainy season. Geothermal energy also can bring toxic chemicals beneath the earth's surface to the top and can create environmental changes.
Non-renewable energy is the energy taken from other sources that are available on the earth. They are limited and will run out in the future. They can't be re-generated in a short time. Fossil fuels - natural gas, oil and coal - are examples. They are cheap and easy to use. However, when burnt, they release toxic gases in the air, so they cause serious environmental changes such as global warming. And the important thing is that non-renewable sources will expire someday.
