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 out in 110 years‚ oil in 53 years and natural gas in 54 years. While a century to half a century seems like

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 gas derived from fracking. This combined with other statistics may make

Summarizing what I read‚ one viewpoint says that it is better for our environment‚ and green‚ and clean to use solar powered‚ wind powered‚ and water powered energy sources instead of fossil fuels such as coal‚ oil and natural gas. The other viewpoint states that it would take up too much land space to use these sources and that they are not “green‚” and it would be better to use nuclear power as an energy source because it does not take up as much land
