Hydraulic fracking is the method of extracting gas from sediments by injecting the area with a mixture of water‚ sand and other chemicals to release methane gas. Another source of fuel is the mining of coal. Unlike fracking‚ coal mining requires labor that is both physically demanding and hazardous. Mining for coal also requires a larger surface area and therefore could have a larger negative impact on the environment. The burning of coal contributes more CO2 emissions than the burning of natural
