Fossil Fuels Becoming Extinct Specific purpose: I will inform my audience of how alternate energy sources help protect the environment‚ different types of energy sources‚ and the most plausible alternate energy to be used in the future. Central idea: Alternate Energy sources are being developed to address not only the global effect of fossil fuels on the environment but the ever decreasing quantity of fossil fuels as well. INTRODUCTION I. Imagine you are on your way to the gas station

America runs on fossil fuels. Automobiles‚ trains‚ airplanes and most‚ or all‚ transportation methods depend on these fossil fuels. Electric power is also derived‚ primarily‚ from fossil fuels. Americans derive 39% of their power from coal‚ 27% from natural gas and 19% from nuclear power (“U.S. Energy Information Administration - EIA - Independent Statistics and Analysis”). However‚ fossil fuels are quickly running out‚ as they are a nonrenewable resource. Scientists predict coal resources will run

Describe and explain how the use of Fossil fuels may affect the environment and discuss measures‚ which could be taken to reduce the harmful consequences Fossil fuels include gasoline‚ oil‚ coal‚ or natural gas. Whenever we burn them‚ more pollutant gases are emitted into the atmosphere. They are burned to run cars and trucks‚ heat homes and business and power factories and are responsible for about 98% of U.S carbon dioxide emissions‚ 24% of methane emissions and 18% of nitrous oxide emissions.

Is biofuel an effective substitute for fossil fuel? The planet has been profoundly explored as the human population grows fast. As a result‚ many natural resources are coming to an end. This essay will discuss why it is extremely important to find renewable alternatives that could replace our traditional energy source – the fossil fuel – and focus on successful uses of biofuel‚ which have comparable performance‚ but do not emit carbon dioxide. Fossil fuel is a natural‚ but not renewable‚ energy

value‚ because economic dollars do not consider ecological impact. Value in our economic system leads to production that is not always rational. Pope Francis speaks of this when he states‚ “Production is not always rational‚ and is usually tied to economic variables which assign to products a value that does not necessarily correspond to their real worth. This frequently leads to an overproduction of some commodities‚ with unnecessary impact on the environment” (Francis 127). Pope Francis argues that

Fossil Fuels: Our Society’s Dependency Natural Resources Report by Sean Falconer Chemistry 122 Mr. Hart 1997-02-07 Our society has become dependent on fossil fuels for energy. That seems fine for now considering the fact that everyone is generally happy in the present situation. Fossil fuels are relatively inexpensive and seem to be doing the trick right now. Using fossil fuels arise such issues as global warming‚ rising costs of scarce resources‚ and shortages of raw materials. None

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 many human factors

which is used for burning is produced from the fossil fuels‚ which at the moment are decreasing at a much faster rate than they are being produced. Cow Dung is a place below earth surface where all waste of animals and rubbish from city is stored. Together the waste of animals and rubbish produces a gas called bio-gas which can be used for burning. In this way‚ rubbish which is burnt & makes pollution can be made into a useful gas and our fossil fuels can be saved‚ making a better future for our new

From Fossil Fuels to Renewable Energy The gas pump. As of late‚ it has been the bane of drivers everywhere. With the prices of crude oil skyrocketing combined with the prices at the pump and nearly everywhere else‚ many people are looking toward renewable energy sources to supplement or replace the use of fossil fuels. This interest in renewable resources has generated new energy policies around the world‚ has spawned new energy technology and has produced ideas on a different way of
