Answer to Question 1

There are conventional fuel sources such as petroleum under the ocean floor. Meanwhile, there is enormous potential to capture unconventional energy supplies from the sea, especially by using the power of surface winds and waves and of rising and falling tides to generate electricity. Europeans are leading the way in using these forms of energy. Prospects are increasing for the deep-sea mining of other minerals, including gold, silver, and the copper, cobalt, nickel, and rare earth minerals (many of which are used in high-tech devices) held within manganese nodules strewn across much of the world's seafloor.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
