User Review - Renewable Energy is the topic of the day for the industrial sector as much it is for every citizen. Power and water have proved to be key in survival of man. The author while taking us through various stages in this work has presented his expertise and study on the country's capacity of fossil fuel which led to taking to nuclear power. The hazards of nuclear power and bringing to the notice that the importance of disposal of waste ought to be considered before depending on nuclear power. Environmental hazards have cropped up.Several NGOs in expert reports have submitted concern for it. The result is that Renewable energy is being considered s non hazardous source which requires revival.

Soon we will also realise the power of hands when machines run opposer will be replaced by the skill of hands. Man has realised the importance of preserve nature.The work makes the reader aware of that only non destructive sources be adopted which will make studies and inventions hand over to our successors a healthy and prosperous planet.
