Best Answer

Use less of them by developing renewable fuels like wind power, sunlight, hydrogen gas (fuel cells), and ethanol. Also, developing more efficient ways to burn coal, oil, and natural gasses when they must be used would help protect our supply of fossil fuels.

Why does the government not ban the use of fossil fuels?

Obviously anyone not a part of the government would not know. But, the use of fossil fuels are growing dramatically. The use of it isn't the only thing growing. The concern regarding the collaboration between fossil fuels damaging the environment, is growing, too. Not everyone apart of the government is up for the contemptible essence of using fossil fuels. Many debates regarding this contamination have determined a small idea of what to do. But so far nothing has been done about it.


What is beening done to control and prevent gobal warming?

to prevent it you should turn off appliances when not in use, stop buringin fossil fuels and nuclear power to stop 40% of all carbon fuel usage. Hope this was Useful . to prevent it you should turn off appliances when not in use, stop buringin fossil fuels and nuclear power to stop 40% of all carbon fuel usage. Hope this was Useful .


How can humans worsen the effects of burning fossil fuels?

Humans can worsen the effects of burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) by cutting down the great forests of the world. This, sadly, has already been done, so the forests no longer remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.


You can reduce your fossil fuels by developing?

You can reduce the usage of fossil fuels by developing alternative energies. Some options are solar energy, wind energy, hydraulic energy, geothermal energy, and several others more. While some progress has been made, a lot has to be done yet - we depend way too much on fossil fuels. Another thing that should be done is to reduce energy usage in general. For a start, see if you have the old-fashioned incandescent bulbs, and change them for energy-saving fluorescent bulbs. That way you not only do the planet a favor, but you also do a favor to your budget, since you do pay for the energy the light bulbs consume.

Can fossils fuels can be made by humans?

Yes, but it would take enormous amounts of time and money. Organic matter (like vegetation and dead animals) has to be put under colossal pressure and then left for 300 million years. If we have done everything correctly we should have some kind of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) at the end of it.


Why are fossil fuels not that efficient?

Because of the byproducts created by current methods of extracting the energy contained within fossil fuels (usually, burning them). Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide, the 'worst' byproduct, into the atmosphere, which in turn is thought to be a major cause of the increasing world temperature ("global warming"). Fossil fuels are the remains of life (for example, coal fields were once forests). Life as we know it is carbon-based, this is why carbon is released- usually in the form of carbon dioxide- when fossil fuels (or other forms of life) are burned. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas- it's capacity to store heat is great. The increase in greenhouse gasses in our atmosphere is proposed as a reason for global warming.


You cant find the other fossil in Pokemon emeralD?

after you get the first fossil in the tower in the sand place go to the house where you get dig and when the guy is done making the tunnel there should be an entrance, go in and somewhere in the cave is the second fossil


Do geologists help conserve renewable sources?

No, geologists study rocks and rock formations. Some geological surveys are done to locate fossil fuels. Their job specifics do not directly impact renewable fuel sources.
