Why is oil and natural gas bad for the environment?

Answer 1

natural gas is bad for the environment because as soon as it gets in your tap water, it releases toxics into the water that turn it brown and make it flammable. if you drink the polluted water, you could get very bad headaches, loss of smell and sometimes taste (i know it sounds hard to believe) and loss of hunger. and as for animals, dramatic hair loss, weight loss even death.

Answer 2

Burning oil and natural gas releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change. Extraction of oil and gas can also result in habitat destruction, water pollution, and disruption of wildlife ecosystems. Additionally, oil spills from transportation or drilling accidents can cause significant harm to marine and terrestrial ecosystems.
