1.http://energy.gov/fossil
     I picked this article because its gives a good basis for what the definition of energy is and how it is obtained. It explains the process of going into the earth and getting fossil fuels and the controversy about it. As well as giving a good supporting argument for green energies.

2.http://www.sciencedaily.com/news/matter_energy/fossil_fuels/
     This article just tells the reader what exactly fossil fuels are so it should provide some solid facts about coal and oil. But also I like the way it was formatted and showed some very good diagrams explaining the process. Another cool thing was showing the energy outputs of all the major countries, such as India, China, and the US.

3.http://www.sustainabletable.org/issues/energy/
     In this article is showed a lot about how the green world of energy interacts with everything else. It showed how to obtain green energy and what you can do to help with it also. So I thought it could help out a lot with explain to people what exactly renewable energy is without just boring them and teaching them what they already know.

     What I thought was useful in looking at this article was how it shows both sides of the energy world and compared renewable to burning coal and oil. Since oil and coal have been used for more than 100 years it seems to be outdated but still in use. It should provide a nice basis for an argument to make in my paper.

     This article is similar to my 4th resource but it gives a little different perspective on the argument with some more statistics involved so I can have more points to make in my paper. But it does have nice graphs that shows stats on the energy output of each type of method, such as coal vs solar and other things like that. So I mainly like it for that reason and thought it would be very helpful when comparing the two in my paper.
