There are two theories about fossil fuels - either they will never disappear or they will within the next 127 years. Renewable energy sources need to replace fossil fuels. Renewable energy can be obtained from waste through processes like biogas, methane, and biomass. Biomass involves feeding waste into an oven to produce methane which can be burned for electricity, though some argue importing waste raises issues. Nuclear power does not emit carbon but nuclear waste storage risks accidents.
