Overall, solar is one of the cleanest energies for the environment. Solar cells are usually made from silicon, which is basically sand. The silicon is doped with phosphorus to create the N-type, or negative layer, which is the top layer. The bottom layer of silicon is doped with boron which creates the P-type, or positive layer. When the sun hits the N-type layer it knocks electrons free to flow from the n-type layer to the p-type layer. In doing this an electic current is made. String enough solar cells together and voila, you can power anything.
Over the past two decades large sections of glacier, Many of them dwarfing Rhode Island, have broken off from the Antarctic Glacial Shelf and fallen to the sea.
A short summary of how nuclear power is generated through nuclear fission.
