The impacts of natural gas on environment are less than those produced from both oil and coal (Roarty‚ 2008). While its owing of oil is small‚ Australia has an acceptable storage of natural gas‚ he adds. Another claim for mixing of energy sources in Australia is that the diversification of power sources‚ by using clean energy‚ is beneficial

There are several different forms of energy I use throughout the year at home‚ work‚ and while traveling and the amounts of these energies I use varies with the different seasons. At home the main sources of energy used is the fossil fuel‚ natural gas‚ and the secondary energy electricity. Electricity is a secondary source because it is converted by using other primary sources of energy such as coal‚ nuclear‚ or solar energy (“Electricity Basics”‚ n.d). I rely on these two main forms of energy

(also known as fracking)‚ a way of obtaining natural gas that is used today‚ may cause cancer and may speed up global warming’s. Fracking injects a mix of water‚ "chemicals‚ sand‚ and other materials into layers of shale‚ a type of rock" (Source 1). The injection flows down a pipe that is going through the shale. To obtain the natural gas‚ the pressure in the pipe causes the rock around the pipe to crack‚ allowing natural gas to escape. Then‚ the gas flows up the well and is collected. However‚ Hydraulic

We as Americans have a comfortable lifestyle. A large part of which comes from using natural resources. There are a lot of reasons why earth conscious people would want to prevent oil drilling in an area that is protected called The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

fracking? Fracking is the industry that is natural gas being abstracted from shale rock. It’s hydraulic done by injecting fluid into the ground at a high pressure in order to get into the shale rock to release natural gas. Why does the industry do this? It is more wrongs than rights but the natural gas is a clean burning gas. Gas is environmentally good when it is burnt but when it is being abstracted from the shale rock is when it is bad. The causes to get the gas is a whole outcome has a big effect
