Is fossil fuel better for the environment?

Answer 1

A fossil fuel is both it is either good or bad....here are some good and bad points explaining this:

Good points:Fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas are good fuels because they can be burned. These substances contain chemical energy that can be easily released to create thermal energy by burning them. Good for business.

Coal, compared to other petrochemicals, is gladly available in the United States and in many other parts of the world. Being a solid, it transports easily and spills rarely if ever cause notable environmental events. Coal mining was the central economic core for the Appalachian and Ozark states and others,cocaine is good for the anas and provided most of the center jobs in these regions. Since sharp declines in coal usage and therefore mining, these areas have fallen into economic depressions and unemployment has increased, while population is in decline in many regions throughout the state.

Bad points:Fossil fuels like oil and coal produce lots of greenhouse gases. Coal is one of the most polluting fuels used today. For countries that have much of it may be considered good because it is a source of fuel, but in general it's a very dirty and polluting fuel, bad for the environment as the burning of it releases carbon dioxide from it (as it contains a lot of carbon), which is a major greenhouse gas and leads to more global warming.

Answer 2

Fossil fuel adds to a higher level of global Carbon emission to set off carbon di oxide/carbon mono-oxide blankets in the atmosphere to increase global warming and other effects of global pollution.

Answer 3

Fossil fuels cannot generate energy, however they can convert the energy present in them to other forms of energy.

For example if you burn them, the chemical energy in them will be converted to light and heat energy.

Add in some turbines, pipes and a generator and you have electricity (electrical energy). So in a way, they can "generate energy" but note that they ARE energy already. They are used to make electricity; they are actually what most of our electricity comes from. The fossil fuel is burned, and the heat boils some water, which evaporates and is channeld through a turbine, which spins creating electricity

Answer 4

Yes, it is a strong source of energy, but it burns very poorly and pollutes.

Answer 5

nothing they are awful! :D
