Climate Change and Ocean Renewable Energy

Renewable energy is energy that is collected from renewable resources and is naturally replenished on a human timescale. It will be the fastest growing source of energy, providing around 14% of global primary energy by 2040. Transitioning to renewable energy sources, such as biofuels, can help slow down the effects of climate change. The 1st International Conference on Climate Change and Ocean Renewable Energy (CCORE 2022) is a virtual conference that brings together students, postdocs, and established scientists to exchange ideas and contribute to an integrative approach to climate change and ocean renewable energy.

Renewable energy is derived from naturally replenished resources, such as sunlight, tides, waves, wind, rain, and geothermal heat, that are available on a human timescale. According to BP's 2018 Energy Outlook (EO), renewable energy is expected to experience the fastest growth, increasing fivefold by 2040, and will contribute around 14% of global primary energy. However, climate change poses significant challenges, including rising temperatures that negatively impact both humans and the environment. Transitioning to renewable energy sources, such as biofuels, can help address these challenges.

Renewable energy adoption is crucial in combating climate change. While renewable energy technologies were once more expensive, advancements in clean energy technologies are driving down costs and facilitating the shift away from fossil fuels. The 1st International Conference on Climate Change and Ocean Renewable Energy (CCORE 2022), a virtual conference held from November 4 to 7, 2022, provides a platform for researchers, students, and established scientists to exchange ideas and contribute to an integrated approach to climate change and ocean renewable energy.

In conclusion, renewable energy is a vital component in addressing climate change. Its growth, driven by advancements in clean energy technologies, is projected to significantly contribute to global energy production. By transitioning to renewable energy sources and reducing reliance on fossil fuels, we can mitigate the negative impacts of climate change and create a more sustainable future. The CCORE 2022 conference serves as a platform for fostering collaboration and driving innovation in this critical field.
