Question: What are scientists doing to stop the effects that electricity has on climate change?

Alex Ramadan answered on 8 Dec 2020:

There are lots of scientists like myself who are working on ways to produce electricity without producing the emissions that result in climate change.

We have people working on methods to generate electricity like solar panels/solar fuels (this is where sunlight is used to react with chemicals to make fuels). Then we have researchers making more efficient batteries so we can easily store this energy. We also have people working on new methods of making fuels through something called fuel cells – so this is kind of like a new type of battery which gives us energy in a different way.

Overall there are a lot of scientists round the world trying to make different methods to produce/store electricity which will help fight climate change (we hope!).
