To save environmental and economic costs.
We need to conserve fossil fuels because they are non-renewable. Once our reserves are depleted, we will have to come up with synthetic fuels. We do have synthetic oil, but not in the quantities that the world needs.
they must be buried.
Fossil fuels produce electricity when they are burned to make steam or smoke which turns generators to make electricity. But we must be careful that we are not burning too much fossil fuels so that we will run out one day. :)
Because fossil fuels are a non-renewable resource and will eventually run out. As well as the fact they ate becoming more and mote expensive
hydrocarbons( carbon and hydrogen)
Because all fossil fuels must be imported.
Fossil fuels won't last for ever. We must research alternative power sources: of which solar power is just one possibility.
Fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas were formed over millions of years. By definition, the world is a finite place and so must fossil fuels be. They can not be instantaneously replaced. It is why the world is trying to move to renewables such as tidal, wind, wave, solar etc
Fossil fuels are a precious resource because they cannot be replaced. So it makes sense to use them carefully, until something else (renewable energy or nuclear fusion) is developed.
Coal & gas Hey my teacher told me the answer so she must be right!
We find must source better to get energy that hurt wont earth
Other fuels must be developed asFossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) are damaging the atmosphere and causing global warmingFossil fuels won't last for ever, and will eventually run out.
