How much solar energy is available, and what happens when it is used? What are some problems with harnessing solar energy?
What will be an ideal response?
There is more than enough solar energy available to supply all of our energy needs. If we could just somehow harness one single day's worth of solar energy we would be set for an entire year. Because solar energy is renewable (the Sun shines again tomorrow) it is not depleted when we use it (like fossil fuels are). Capturing and harnessing solar energy can be difficult because of cost limitations, availability of sunlight (the Sun shines for only half the day or less), and seasonal fluctuations in sunlight.
