What are the social and moral implications of the continuing development of renewable energy?

I’m doing Engineering and I am really stuck. I have to include EEC and world targets, whatever they are. Please help me, someone?

The Expert answers:

How about this: start by identifying some renewable energy sources. Get some ideas and thoughts flowing by creating a flow chart of each stage of the supply chain from source to delivery and try and identify a social and moral aspects at each stage of the chain. Then think about some non-renewable energy sources (which they all are eventually – ha – just some are gonna run out before the new deposits are down) and compare and contrast. Good Luck
