What else can I help you with?
Why dont some plants and animals rot away?
because they use plants and animals to make fossil fuels
Plants and animals usually rot away. Why didn't these plants and animals rot away?
fossil fuels are called 'fossil' fuels because they started off as living things, in the same way as the fossils you see in mueseums started off as living things fossil fuels include coal, crude oil, natural gas and peat
What is the relationship between burning of fossil fuels and carbon dioxide?
Burning fossil fuels (combustion) releases carbon dioxide. As carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, presently contributing to global warming, this is why the world is moving away from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
Name three ways to minimize the negative effects to fossil fuels?
Increase energy efficiency in transportation, industry, and buildings to reduce the overall demand for fossil fuels. Invest in renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower to gradually transition away from fossil fuels. Implement carbon capture and storage technologies to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases from fossil fuel combustion.
Explain howfossil fuels are formed and why they are described as non-renewable?
fossil fuels are made from hydrocarbons of fossils of early life that has been locked away for millions of years
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.
How can we transition to alternative energy sources that do not rely on fossil fuels?
Transitioning to alternative energy sources that do not rely on fossil fuels involves investing in renewable sources like solar, wind, and hydroelectric power. This requires government support through policies that promote clean energy, as well as technological advancements and public awareness to encourage the shift away from fossil fuels.
Are your fossil fuels going away?
Fossil fuels are disappearing because we are taking them from the earth quicker than the earth can produce them and when they are all gone the world will go into crisis as peaple arn't ready for this to happen. What we need to do is build wind farms and solar panels.
How does fossil fuels affect U.S.'s national security?
It increases the mindset of securitization. All wars are based off of securitizing or threat constructing many people. Our dependence on oil leads to many forms of oil. We NEED to move away from fossil fuels.
Which of the following is a true statement about fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) take 300 million years to form.They contain carbon that has been hidden away all that time.Burning fossil fuels releases that extra carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.This extra carbon dioxide is building up, trapping more heat, and is the main cause of global warming.Global warming is causing climate change.
What are fossil fuels Also list examples?
Coal, oil, natural gas, petroleum. These are called fossil fuels because they are the result of fossilised plants which grew on earth millions of years ago, and have rotted away over a period of time and become solids, liquids, and gases which are used today for heat and cooking and cars, etc.
Do fossil fuels cause air pollution?
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), when burnt, emit carbon dioxide, which is classed as a pollutant when it is released into the other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide from fossil fuels has been hidden away for hundreds of millions of years. Releasing it now is adding more to the levels of greenhouse gases causing an enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
