1) Non-renewable energy can be dangerous and can cause respiratory problems in humans
because sources like fossil fuels emit gases such as carbon monoxide.
2) The workers working in coal mines or oil drills are more prone to a number of health risks.
As a result, there are a large number of diseases, injuries and even deaths.
3) One of the major disadvantages of non-renewable energy is that it is time-consuming. Mining
of coal, searching for oil,
4) Sources like coal, oil and natural gas release a large amount of carbon dioxide when burnt. As
a result of these chemicals, they are rapidly destroying the ozone layer.
Role Of Energy Resources in Human Health.
Energy use is central to human society and provides many health benefits. But each source of
energy entails some health risks. This article reviews the health impacts of each major source
of energy, focusing on those with major implications for the burden of disease globally. The
biggest health impacts accrue to the harvesting and burning of solid fuels, coal and biomass,
mainly in the form of occupational health risks and household and general ambient air
pollution. Lack of access to clean fuels and electricity in the world's poor households is a
particularly serious risk for health. Although energy efficiency brings many benefits, it also
entails some health risks, as do renewable energy systems, if not managed carefully. We do
not review health impacts of climate change itself, which are due mostly to climate-altering
pollutants from energy systems, but do discuss the potential for achieving near-term health
benefits by reducing certain climate-related emissions. Expected final online publication date
for the Annual Review of Public Health Volume 34 is March 17, 2013.
