We use many fossil fules such as coal, petrol, oil etc. If you would like to go more specific, these are not renewable fuels ast they take millions of years to create. This is why we need to find new energy source's because, we burn them in matter of minuetes. Hope this helped :-)
What else can I help you with?
Why were electric cars invented?
Electric cars have been invented due to the insight (and hope) that it may be an end to the world's dependence of fossil fuels. There is no synthetic fuels we can use, all the fuels and synthetic oils that we use today are derivatives of fossil fuels. Most plastics made today require fossil fuels. Also with the sun being as plentiful as it is in some regions it may become cheaper and more practical to use the solar capabilites, especially since it is a resource that is not expected to burn out for thousands if not another million years.
Does rockets use fossil fuels?
Most rockets today use liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen as fuel, not fossil fuels. These fuels react to produce water vapor and can be considered eco-friendly compared to fossil fuels. However, some rockets still use a combination of liquid oxygen and kerosene as fuel, which is a fossil fuel.
What are some slogans about fossil fuels?
Bury Fossils get Fuels
What are some startling facts about fossil fuels?
Coal, petrol etc are examples of fossil fuels. They are exhaustible.
Is electricity made of fossil fuels?
No. Some electricity is made by using fossil fuels. There's a difference.
How would fossil fuels change in the future?
The fossil fuels will become extinct in some years.There is no future of fossil fuels.That is why there is so much research going on the alternate fuels.
Are all fuels examples of chemical energy?
They don't have to be. Some fuels are fossil fuels, which are rapidly disappearing right now. Some examples of fossil fuels are oil, which we use for gas, and coal, which we use for heat and electricity. But fossil fuels take millions of years to make more, so we are rapidly using up the fossil fuels of the world.
What are some drawbacks of using fossil fuels?
something that is bad about fossil fuels is that it makes to much polution and it is unreplaceable
What are some non fossil fuels?
Non-renewable fossil fuels are: * coal * crude oil (Petroleum) * natural gas
How would life without fossil fuels affect the world?
Dull and boring...because fossil fuels and some power stations produce energy and sometimes electricity.And withought electicity we would not be able to have the great inventions we have today! And withought them it would not be a very fun life. By a year seven called... Taylor Marshall
What do thermal energy and fossil fuels have in common?
When fossil fuels are burned, some of the chemical energy stored in them is converted into thermal energy.
What are some good things about fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are the most prevalent source of energy today because: * coal is found all over the world and can be mined fairly easily. * oil has been discovered all over the world, it can be pumped out fairly easily, and when burnt it has tremendous power (a cup of gasoline can run a car full of people for a mile at high speed, nothing else comes close to that). * natural gas is similar to the above.
