Abstract :
The earth warming might be the most urgent world problem now. Unable to solve this problem will lead to the extinction of our civilization. Its solution relies on if we can substantially cut down the using of fossil fuels shortly. Giving up the habit of using those fossil fuels is not practical at all, because only fossil fuels can provide us enough energy for daily life so far. Recently, a brand new renewable energy has been discovered and a method of using this renewable energy to generate the electricity has been found also. Using this renewable energy to generate the electricity has advantages of: stable, large volume, no natural resource will be consumed and no carbon dioxide generated. To most scientists\´ surprise, this brand new renewable energy is "universal gravitation". It was shown recently that universal gravitation is not only a kind of force; it is also a kind of renewable energy existed in the nature. Its theoretical foundation comes from Pascal\´s law, an important physics law which has existed for more than three hundred years long. Since that using universal gravitation to generate the electricity carries no generating cost, therefore, the adoption of using this method is becoming inevitable. It is time to think seriously about the inevitable impacts of this possible trend on every aspect of our civilization.
