What is the disadvantage of using coal to generate electricity?
There are several disadvantages to using coal to generate electricity. When coal is burned, it releases lots of carbon dioxide, which is a problem because the atmosphere already has too much carbon dioxide and it is causing global warming. In addition, there are impurities in coal which result in other forms of air pollution, particularly sulfur dioxide which results in acid rain. Coal mining is also a dangerous activity that results in many deaths. And although there is a lot of coal, it is still not a renewable resource, and it will eventually run out, if we continue to burn it.

What energy sources were used in 1900?
The main energy source in 1900 was coal. Coal was used on the railroads, to heat houses, to fuel steamships, to provide mechanical power in factories, and to generate electricity. There was some oil production in the US, but as motor vehicles had only just started to be used, the demand was not much, and of course aviation was unknown.
