While fossil fuels are critical for the operation of our world their inefficiency and environmentally damaging characteristics take away from their appeal. Currently there are no suitable alternatives to our natural resources because they supply such a large amount of energy to so many people. Because of this research is being conducted to make our resources more efficient‚ and to find alternatives. This essay addresses the environmental impacts of our fossil fuels.

Identify three renewable energy sources and assess their potential to replace fossil fuel The rapid depletion of fossil fuels has given serious warning that the era of using conventional energy is coming to an end. Due to the energy shortage‚ a need to find replacement of fossil fuels has appeared. Moreover‚ problems such as various pollution and serious climate change have occurred‚ which makes renewable and less pollution energy source alternative choices. Therefore‚ three options can be suggested

Hydrogen Fuel As An Alternative Energy Source To Replace Fossil Fuels Since the beginning of industry humans have been in search of fuel to power machines and generate energy. Fossil fuels‚ such as crude oil and coal‚ discovered beneath the Earth’s surface were found to be an excellent source of fuel. These fossil fuels are burnt in order to generate the energy required to complete various tasks. Many nations count on coal‚ oil and natural gas to supply most of their energy needs‚ but reliance

Renewable energy is energy from natural resources such as sunlight‚ wind‚ rain‚ tides‚ and geothermal heat‚ these resources are naturally replenished. Renewable energy does not harm the environment or deplete any of our natural resources like fossil fuel. Renewable energy is not subject to sharp price changes because it comes from natural resources. Biomass is currently the largest U.S. renewable energy source with more than two hundred existing bio power plants providing energy for one point five

Renewable energy is the need of the hour It is the year 2050‚ Earth is so polluted‚ vision is obscured by smog‚ lakes and streams are poisoned. Oh! What a terrible sight. This may become a reality‚ if we keep using non-renewable energy resources. Hello there! A very good morning and I am Pranav Athreya and you have guessed it right‚ I am speaking for the topic Renewable energy is the need of the hour. At present‚ the main energy sources used are non-renewable fossil fuels like coal‚ petroleum‚ and

In recent decades‚ we have seen a remarkable advancement in science and technology. Owing to this‚ many wonder why the primary sources of consumer energy remain non-renewable fuels; petroleum (36%)‚ coal (27%) and gas (23%) [International Energy Agency‚ 2013]. The issue with this is‚ “fossil fuels” which took millions of years to form are running out at an unprecedented rate‚ and there is no consensual view as to what will replace them. There are many reasons why the general population should be

with Fossil Fuels Have you ever thought about where your electricity comes from? What the petroleum your car runs on is made of? What produces all the energy you see? Coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas make up the list of major fossil fuels. Almost all energy produced in the United States comes from burning these highly important fuels. That energy powers almost all of our electricity and all of our transportation. We as the people of this very planet are currently in a crisis because fossil fuels are

Renewable Energy INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND Renewable energy is a new concept to some people but in actuality it has been around and talked about for many years. What it is is energy that comes from a source that is not depleted when used‚ and can be replenished. Some of these sources are wind‚ rain and sunlight. Renewable energy can replace the common standard fuels humans use in the generation of electricity‚ hot water and heating‚ and motor fuels (“How Solar Energy Works
