  1. The world is running out of oil, and we should keep it for useful things like making plastic instead of burning it.
  2. Burning it is damaging the environment, by adding to global warming. It is much better to conserve it, and use renewable sources of energy instead.

What two steps would you take to conserve fossil fuels?

One approach to the problem is to find new sources of energy. The second way is to make the fuels that are available now last as long as possible while other solutions are being developed.


What are two advantages of burning fossil fuels?

Two advantages of burning fossil fuels are that they are readily available and cost-effective sources of energy. Fossil fuel power plants can also be easily integrated into existing infrastructure, allowing for reliable and consistent energy production.


What are two reasons people need alternative energy resources rather than continuing to use fossil fuels?

We will eventually run out of oil from fossil fuels because it is finite. Worldwide, scientists believe that there is only 500 years of fossil fuels left at the current population increase level. The second reason is that burning these fuels increase greenhouse gases that warm the planet.


What are two advantages of geothermal energy over fossil fuels?

Two advantages of geothermal energy over fossil fuels are that it is a renewable energy source that does not produce greenhouse gas emissions during power generation, and it has a consistent and reliable output compared to fossil fuels which are subject to price fluctuations and supply disruptions.


Where can you find fossil fuels?

Fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas generally need to be extracted from the earth. Mining and well drilling (depending on the substance) are the two main methods for accomplishing this.
