Transcript:
Around the world, renewable energy use is on the rise and these alternative energy sources could hold the key to combating climate change. What is renewable energy?

Over 80 percent of the total energy consumed by humans is derived from fossil fuels. However, renewables are the fastest growing source of energy in the world. Renewable energy has many benefits.
