fossil fuels due to the lacking of oil‚ gas‚ etc. An alternative energy source is ethanol (C2H5OH). It is an alcohol fuel manufactured by fermentation and distillation of crops that are high with starch and sugar‚ such as grains‚ sugarcane (most commonly used)‚ corn‚ and fruit. Other names for ethanol are ethyl alcohol‚ drinking alcohol‚ and grain alcohol. It can also be made from trees‚ grasses‚ woods‚ and plant waste. It is a colourless‚ flammable liquid that is categorized under bio-fuel. Brazil

The debt over burning fossil fuels and the impact it has caused on climate change as been discussed over years without answer as to say if the gradual warming of the earth is a natural process or if human activity has added to the acceleration of climate change or is the key behind it. Evidence of this is the hockey stick debt as temperature rise rapidly once humans became developed. One thing we do know is that there are many natural events that possibly could accelerate global warming but also

“The use of fossil fuels‚ such as coal and oil‚ belongs to the past.” For the time being‚ the world is mostly dependent on the use of fossil fuels. All the infrastructure is fossil fuel based. i.e. if the world runs out of fossil fuels now‚ there won’t be any alternative energy source to power the entire world. Fossil fuels are usually found in rock formations containing fossils from decomposed animals and plants. The formation of fossil fuels happens in the course of hundreds of millions of years

Fossil Fuels and Alternative Energy Resource Worksheet Using the textbooks‚ the University Library‚ or other resources‚ answer each of the following questions in 150 to 200 words. 1. Select a fossil fuel. How is this fossil fuel used? What are the adverse effects on the environment? The fossil fuel I would like to use and is the most popular fossil fuel would be oil. Oil is used into things like gasoline‚ which is used for very much all of our transportation needs still now and those in the past

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Cars: Worth the Investment? Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe‚ but only recently have people been able to harness this resource and turn it into energy. Hydrogen fuel cell cars are one such advancement made in the effort to turn hydrogen gas into electricity. Fuel cells in the car are used to convert hydrogen into an electrical current‚ and thus power the vehicle. Fuel cells convert hydrogen and oxygen into water while producing electricity. Hydrogen fuel cell

USE ALTERNATIVE FUELS‚ SAVE PLANET EARTH We are all aware of the current state of our environment. Mother Earth is on the brink of total destruction brought about by pollution‚ irresponsible use of resources‚ and the excessive use of conventional fuel such as fossil fuel and nuclear energy. Part of the efforts to save our planet is to shift from using conventional fuels to alternative ones such as wind energy‚ solar‚ tidal‚ wave‚ oceal‚ thermal‚ dendrothermal‚ biogas and biodiesel‚ alcohol

Differences between fossil fuel and renewable energy One of the great issues facing world in the 21st century is how best to obtain the energy for supporting operations: heat and light‚ transportation‚ production and delivery of goods and services. Fossil fuel supplies nearly 90 percent of the energy‚ according to the U.S. Department of Energy. In contrast‚ only %5 is provided by renewable energy. There are several differences between fossil fuel and renewable energy. Fossil fuel are including: oil

to this dilemma. Past research has shown that hydrogen fuel cells can quite possibly replace the country’s current usage of oil while having a more positive effect on the environment. However‚ environmentalists have conducted their own contradicting research on fuel cells reflecting negative effects on the environment. Numerous articles have been published which express both sides of this debate. Although some scientists believe hydrogen fuel cells will improve the environment and rid the United States
