Day 4

A. Let’s Dig Deeper!

Direction: Let’s gain more knowledge. You may do some research on the web to
complete the table (Note: Cite your sources). You need to enumerate at least five uses
of each type of fossil fuel. Also, you need to identify the type of fossil fuel as
renewable energy resource or not. Lastly, infer environmental concerns related to
each type of fossil fuel.
