Alternative energy
Ocean, wind and others are sources or alternative energy.
Alternative energy is often referenced as: any energy source that is an alternative to fossil fuel. These alternatives are intended to address concerns about such fossil fuels. It causes less pollution too.
The nature of what constitutes an alternative energy source has changed considerably over time, as have controversies regarding energy use. Today, because of the variety of energy choices and differing goals of their advocates, defining some energy types as "alternative" is highly controversial.
In a general sense, alternative energy as it is currently conceived, is that which is produced or recovered without the undesirable consequences inherent in fossil fuel use, particularly high carbon dioxide emissions (greenhouse gas), an important factor in global warming.
Definitions
History
Historians of economies have examined the key transitions to alternative energies and regard the transitions as pivotal in bringing about significant economic change. Prior to the shift to an alternative energy, supplies of the dominant energy type became erratic, accompanied by rapid increases in energy prices.

Jerome Johnson at His Center for Alternative Energy in Brooklyn, New York October 2013
On many Sundays since 1980, people have visited the Johnson Energy Clinic and Cooperative to learn about and contribute to the scientific and environmental ideas that have bloomed there in East Flatbush, Brooklyn on East 53rd Street. It is listed as a museum by Community Board 17. Jerome Johnson, who has been living there for twelve years but has owned it for about fifty, says he is tens of thousand of dollars in debt, stemming from not paying his water bill but that he hasn’t used city water in decades.

Read the report here: https://www.cleanegroup.org/publication/demanding-a-better-grid/
While demand management cannot necessarily address the entire projected energy generation deficit New York currently faces, it is a simple and rapidly implementable solution which can narrow the projected gap significantly. Importantly, demand management solutions can provide a cost-effective and emissions-free alternative to extending the life of existing polluting fossil fuel assets like aging and inefficient peaker power plants. If implemented effectively, demand management programs can also reduce energy burdens, increase reliability, and generate workforce development opportunities for New York City’s most marginalized communities.
In this webinar, report authors provided an overview of how demand management could reduce New York’s reliance on fossil peaker plants and outlined best practices from other regions that could benefit New York City’s most energy burdened communities.

On many Sundays since 1980, people have visited the Johnson Energy Clinic and Cooperative to learn about and contribute to the scientific and environmental ideas that have bloomed there in East Flatbush, Brooklyn on East 53rd Street. It is listed as a museum by Community Board 17. Jerome Johnson, who has been living there for twelve years but has owned it for about fifty, says he is tens of thousand of dollars in debt, stemming from not paying his water bill but that he hasn’t used city water in decades. Now that any Sunday could be the last, as the given date for foreclosure has passed on August 4th, Johnson sticks to his story as his defense.
Every sunday groups of people visited the Solar House beginning in the early 80s.
As Johnson gives a tour of the “solar house,” as it is sometimes dubbed, or John SUNhouse, he points out not only items that represent self-sufficiency and sustainability but also invaluable possessions that put together the story of how the museum came together and that could potentially be auctioned off with the house. He has framed pictures from the White House, where his earlier product, the Reflectal, a silver umbrella that was used as a lighting tool to take pictures of another Johnson, President Lindon Johnson, in the 1960s: he shows the reject pictures as well. A 1962 book, Popular Science, described the Reflectal as combining “some new technology with the old… exciting photographers from Hollywood to the Congo.” The umbrellas were lined with BoPET, a polyester film commercially known as Mylar, which could be easily replaced with aluminum foil. The Mylar also lines ceilings in the house to reflect heat.
There is half of the original library on energy conservation and the like; he later shows a picture of the plethora of government-financed alternative energy journals that existed in the 70s. The mudroom has a dry plant (not thrown away), a propane tank converted into a wood stove and a door of narrow, plastic sheets: a person would come into warmth from the cold in wintertime. There are large (maybe four by four) squares of reused, painted egg cartons for insulation: the squares look like giant computer chips. There is a bumper sticker with the same logo that is now seen in Japanese: "Nuclear Power? No Thanks."
There is memorabilia of Johnson’s life such as model geodesic domes from when, in the early 70s, he taught environmental high school seminars in Mamaroneck in Westchester County. There is memorabilia on the walls that feature his work for DOE, newspaper articles about the house and articles about uses of the lighting equipment, such as in the L.A. Watts riots or for photo shoots of Sammy Davis Junior.
Recently, Occupy Brooklyn TV of Occupy Public Access TV, produced a short video story of the Solar House (which Johnson shared from a disk), preceding a series of Sundays in the summer when Johnson would bring people in once again. Colia Clark, a Green Party candidate for NY State Senate, promoted the visits and brought a particularly large group one Sunday.
"If I lose the house I'm gonna lose history," he says. "The story really is about Carter being a peanut farmer... made his living and his whole life with a different attitude."
