1. What are the dominant fossil fuels used in your country? Oil, coal and gas. 2. Where are the dominant fossil fuels mainly used for in your country? Transport, industry, electricity, and others. 3. It is your task to create a new policy in order to improve the environmental friendly and sustainable sources and consumption of energy of your country. How would you do that? Think of how you can improve the sources and the consumption of energy. I would create a policy that makes solar panels on public as well as private building roofs mandatory. At the same time the implementation of green roofs as well as rainwater and storm water collection measures should be encouraged. Instead of mass animal production in the flat landscape, the fields should be used for growing vegetables for bio mass energy and for housing wind farms. Wind farms should also be installed on ridges and along the coast line where winds are the strongest. In the North and Baltic Seas, water turbine farms are to create electricity . In the mountains water reservoirs and rivers should be used too create electricity as well. Environmentally friendly and recycled materials and low energy construction measures need to be used when creating new buildings or infrastructure.
