Synonyms: Environment, Environmental
The state of the environment in which we live is of the highest importance – without it we cannot live, and if it is not functioning normally our lives become increasingly difficult. The number of people on the planet and the accelerating rate of individual resource consumption are having negative or disruptive effects on the environment. Global warming and climate change are now global challenges attracting much media attention. Resources such as drinkable water, food and non-polluted environments are all becoming more dependent on technology and competition is growing for these resources. Thus the decisions that we need to make on our journey to becoming 'low carbon' should always be taken with environmental impacts in mind. - Description added by: David Lockie

Synonyms: Fuel Cells, Fuel Cell
In a fuel cell, the chemical energy within the fuel is converted directly into electricity (with by-products of heat and water) without any mechanical drive or generator. This can result in high electrical conversion efficiencies and low emissions. The fuel cell may eventually replace a conventional gas boiler in a central heating system and can generate electricity with a higher efficiency than central power plant and, being located in the home, any waste heat can be used by the household, rather than dumped into the atmosphere.
