Looking to generate a change of\nawareness and positive actions for the environment, there is a study\nChilean that seeks to demystify the belief that environmental policies\nare only to combat climate change, showing that, in addition, these bring\nI get financial benefits by reducing the risk caused by variation\nin fossil fuel prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the study, people\nthey mistakenly think that economic benefits are only associated with\ncost reduction, but do not consider the risks. For example, one of the\nmain arguments of large companies to stop working with\nrenewable energies is that the cost of these is much higher than what they would generate\nwhen working with traditional energy, but what about the risks that this\ndoes it cause to the environment?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this sense, the same study\nhighlights that the use of renewable energies in combination represents a lower\neconomic risk that fossil-based energies (coal, oil, gas\nnatural), since they do not have the volatile factor in the price. In addition, it highlights\nthat it is easy to think that renewable energies could produce\nproblems due to intermittence, being a non-constant and unsafe source of\nresources due to climate change; however, according to analysis on the\nrisk reduction, the danger of intermittency is greatly reduced when\nthese are combined. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
