the traffic jam aka transportation. This happens every day with the use of fossil fuels in cars‚ trucks‚ and other fuel used transportations. According to Elian energy website it shows a statistics that in the year of 2004 about 134.4 billion gallons of oil have been used as fossil fuel. Well that was the one example from the year of 2004 but how about today? This is the fact that shows our everyday use of fuel and causation of air pollution in this environment‚ also the rest of the world. Cause

Currently solar energy does not have the same subsidies as fossil fuels. Fossil fuels subsidies are $72 billion and solar energy subsidies are only $1 billion so the majority of the money goes towards fossil fuels. Solar energy having the same profits as fossil fuels is better for everyone. It would improve the overall health of the planet‚ it would be cheaper and create jobs. As well‚ solar energy is a renewables power source unlike fossil fuel. Solar energy is better for everyone because it

production. Secondly there is the issue of bio-fuel subsidies. As both the European Union and the United States have adopted policies on the production of ethanol and bio-fuel to combat the problem of global warming‚ they are now giving subsidies to farmers to promote increased production. The subsidies have resulted in a larger production than what is needed for bio-fuel production‚ and thus also a reduced number of other crops not subsidized for bio-fuel production. Complicating the problem further

Can coal be a clean fuel? Yes‚ if you attach an accelerator to the smokestack. Burning coal produces flue gases like nitrogen and sulfur oxides: NO2‚ NO3‚ SO2‚ and SO3. When these gases react with atmospheric water‚ they turn into sulfuric and nitric acids such as H2SO4 or

alternative energy : bio fuel - "Ethanol in the Race of the Bio-Fuels " By: Thomas Dwyane Much talk has been going on about the use of the so-called alternative fuel sources in order to answer the demand of preserving the environment. One of the highest possible sources of this alternative fuel is ethanol‚ or that fuel which is derived from corn. Ethanol‚ also known as ethyl alcohol or grain alcohol or more commonly referred to simply as alcohol‚ is a flammable‚ colorless‚ and slightly toxic chemical

instead increase the use of clean energy resources. One such successful example has been Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards‚ which encourage higher fuel efficiency for all vehicles. By creating higher standards for cars‚ the government forced carmakers to innovate and create cleaner cars. At a federal level‚ the EPA could do more to encourage safer extraction of unconventional fuels‚ such as fracking. Currently‚ there does not exist enough regulation on fracking‚ leading to possible serious

that dose not mean the United States needs to completely abolish the use of fossil fuels. The untied states is the worlds largest oil consumer‚ using more than 1/3 of the worlds oil (Altars 8). The majority of America’s oil is used to make gasoline for cars and other motor vehicles‚ it is also refined to generate electric power and diesel engines (Altars 6). If the United states were to extinguish the use of fossil fuels and switch over to renewable resources the nation would be using resources such
