How is using nuclear energy less harmful to the environment then using fossil fuels?
Because it does not produce greenhouse gases
What kind of gases is emitted from LPG gas while burning?
The burning of any fossil fuels emits carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.
Why can't humans just make more fossil fuels like coal?
Because it takes millions of years of high temperature and pressure to turn vegetation and animal matter into fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). A second reason is, they emit too much greenhouse gases.
How is hydrogen made commercially?
Currently, Hydrogen is produced commercially by reforming natural gas or other fossil fuels. The remaining gases are vented and the hydrogen remains.
Why is coal not commonly used for energy?
Coal has to be carefully burned to avoid releasing large amounts of waste gases, particularly sulfur compounds, that contribute to air pollution and acid rain. Oil is easier to burn cleanly, and natural gas is the least polluting of all fossil fuels. There have been programs to produce cleaner solid, liquid, and gas fuels from coal, but few have been widely developed.
How can you burn fossil fuels in a way that you good for the environment?
You cant, once fossil fuels is burned, the atoms in the fuel is split and produces greenhouse gases
How does fossil fuels affects the air?
Fossil fuels affect the air by increasing the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. As they are burned, the gases they give off slowly increase the atmospheric temperature and cause greater heat retention.
What can you infer about fossil fuels from their name?
They are fuels obtained from fossil origins:coal is fossilized vegetationpetroleum and natural gas are derived from fossilized microorganisms
What resources are fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels include the Natural gases, the Petrol, the Coal.
What forms when burned fossil fuels react with water in atmosphere?
global warnming and other gases like air
How are fossil fuels different from wind power?
wind power blows and fossil fuels are gases
Are fossile fuels harmful to the environment?
Because fossil fuels have carbon dioxide trapped inside them and when burned they release it all into the atmosphere where it adds to the greenhouse gases causing global warming.
What is the effects of burning fossil fuels?
greenhouse gases
How can you cut down your use of fossil fuels?
Use natural gases instead of fossil fuels are only use fossil fuel if it very urgent
which describes the burning of fossil fuels?
Burning fossil fuels contributes to climate change and are nonrenewable.
What are the fossil fuels you have on earth?
Oil, coal, and natural gases.
What are coal oil and natural gases known as?
Fossil fuels.
