By Green energy we mean eco-friendly and non-polluting energy sources. Green Energy- the buzz words of the decade- has become synonymous with protection of the future world. In simple words, Green Energy encompasses a host of energy sources, mostly renewable, such as geothermal, wind, solar and hydro. The green energy sources are supposed to lower carbon emissions and cause least instability or disorder to the ecosystem. What is Green Energy?
