Fossil Fuels

Fossil fuels are not green sources of energy,

they are not at all environment friendly.

The technology we use to harness the

energy in fossil fuels is well developed

Whereas transporting renewable sources of

energy such as wind, sun and water is
impossible, transporting fossil fuels is actually
relatively easy.

Fossil fuels are non-renewable energy

sources.

The main disadvantage of using fossil fuels,

of course, is the pollution that they cause.

Fossil fuels are cheap and reliable sources of

energy.
