Energy is the ability to do work or cause a change in a system. It is essential for all activities in the universe, from the movement of a car to the growth of plants and the functioning of the human body. Energy is found in many different forms, such as thermal energy, chemical energy, electrical energy and many others. Additionally, energy can change from one form to another, known as the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it is only transformed.
Humanity has found increasingly sophisticated ways to harness different energy sources to meet its needs, from burning fossil fuels for electricity generation to capturing energy from the sun and wind for the production of clean, sustainable energy. Understanding energy and its efficient management is essential for the sustainability and future of our planet.
