80% of world energy consumption is fossil fuel, nuclear energy use is limited by global trend againsting it. Biofuel and bioloical derived chemical is still on the beginning stage. Woodfire powerplant was largely against by NGO for air pollution (Thai example). Solarcell is high cost and only acceptable by cost of living in first world country. Wind energy is limited to small percent of this world. We had far gap to bridge renewable energy to present world. Fossil fuel depletion at current time would mean the collapse of civilization as we know it.
What else can I help you with?
An energy-rich substance formed from the remains of organisms is?
Fossil Fuels =)
What chemical equation for the burning of fossil fuels?
Burning of fossil fuels is an oxidation reaction.
What is fossil fuels that can be obtained using current technology called?
Fossil fuels that can be obtained using current technology are called proven reserves.
What human activities contribute most greenhouse gases?
Humans have had the greatest impact on climate change by burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas. This activity adds to the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide, creating an enhanced greenhouse effect.
Why are fossil fuels used in the production of solar panels?
Fossil fuels are used in the production of solar panels because they are needed to power the manufacturing processes that create the panels. This includes activities like mining raw materials, transportation, and running factories.
Is a negative impact of the use of fossil fuels for energy apex?
Yes, a negative impact of the use of fossil fuels for energy is the release of greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change, pollution of the environment, and the depletion of finite resources.
What is the negative impact of fossil fuels on the environment?
Fossil fuels contribute to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, leading to climate change. Extraction and burning of fossil fuels also result in habitat destruction, water pollution, and negative health impacts on humans and wildlife.
Should you worry about fossil fuels running out and why?
yes. there is only so many fossil fuels in the earth
What is the timescale of fossil fuels running out?
Fossil Fuels predict to run out withing 50-55 years
What is the negative impact of fossil fuels for energy?
Fossil fuels contribute to air pollution, which can lead to respiratory issues and exacerbate climate change through the release of greenhouse gases. Extracting and burning fossil fuels also have environmental consequences like habitat destruction and water contamination. Additionally, reliance on fossil fuels perpetuates the unsustainable depletion of resources.
Why is the price rising for fossil fuels?
Because they are running out.
How can you prevent fossil fuels from running out?
To prevent fossil fuels from running out, we can focus on reducing our reliance on them by shifting to renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydroelectric power. Increasing energy efficiency in transportation, buildings, and industries can also help extend the lifespan of existing fossil fuel reserves. Additionally, investing in research and development of alternative fuels and technologies can help reduce our overall dependence on fossil fuels.
Why should tidal energy be used instead of fossil fuels?
Fossil fuels are running out quickly, as evidenced by the recent rise in the cost of gasoline due to the negative speculation regarding the "Libya crisis". Whereas 'wave' or 'tidal' energy is naturally occurring and 'renewable'.
How does human activities make a negative impact on the environment?
Pollution is just one example of how humans negatively impact the environment. Pollution can be caused by various things like burning fossil fuels.
Is hydroelectricity a substitute to fossil fuels?
Yes. If we can use more electricity from dams (hydroelectic power), we conserve fossil fuels. I also note that while hydroelectric is generally better than using fossil fuels, there are a number of disadvantages to hydroelectric power, including loss of land and negative impact on the environment when large dams are constructed. See related links.
Why is there a need to replace fossil fuels?
because we are running out of other fuels like oil,petrol and diesel
How can you reduce the impact of fossil fuels?
To reduce the impact of fossil fuels, we can invest in renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydroelectric power. Implementing energy efficiency measures, promoting public transportation, and reducing personal vehicle use can also help decrease the reliance on fossil fuels and their environmental impact. Additionally, supporting policies that regulate and limit the use of fossil fuels can further contribute to reducing their negative effects.
