Abstract: Few are the studies that correlate the climatic changes with the use of the renewable energies, practical inexhaustible sources of energy, which do not pollute the environment. Planetary wise, the use of alternative types of energy was acknowledged for several centuries now. During the last century, the use through combustion of the energy from fossil fuels (oil, gas, coal) had disastrous impact on the environment, much higher than any other human activity in the History, leading to the accumulation of foul gases in the atmosphere, thing that has triggered processes (that might be irreversible). The European Commission admits the need of promoting the Renewable Sources of Energy (RSE) as a priority measure, given the contribution of their exploitation to the protection of the environment and to the sustainable development.

Keywords: sustainable development; climatic nature; energies from fossil fuels; renewable energies; environment protection; Renewable Sources of Energy (RSE). (search for similar items in EconPapers)
