What are two disadvantages of fossil fuels?
Using fossil fuels does not provide enough electricity.
Higher amounts of fuels are needed in order to create just a little power.
Burning fossil fuels creates polluted smoke.
Fossil fuels are limited.
The heat given by fossil fuels is low in temperature
compared to other energy sources like nuclear power or renewables like solar or wind power. The production and consumption of fossil fuels also contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. Extraction of fossil fuels can also be environmentally damaging, such as with oil spills or destruction of ecosystems during coal mining. Combustion of fossil fuels can also produce harmful pollutants that negatively impact human health, such as nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, and particulate matter.
What’s the answer
Two disadvantages of fossil fuels are:
1. They contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and climate change, and
2. Extraction and consumption of fossil fuels can produce harmful pollutants that negatively impact human health and the environment.
What pollutes the air the most
planes/boats/trains
truck/buses
cars
household products/open burning
industrial/commercial
Industrial and commercial activities are some of the largest contributors to air pollution. These activities emit large amounts of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and other harmful pollutants into the air. Household products and open burning can also contribute to air pollution, but are typically on a smaller scale than industrial and commercial activities. Of the transportation options listed, planes and boats tend to be more polluting than trains, trucks and buses, and cars, but this can vary depending on the specific type of vehicle and its fuel efficiency.
so the answer is industrial/commercial?
Yes, that's correct. Industrial and commercial activities tend to be the largest contributors to air pollution.
And which one polllutes the least
Of the options listed, trains tend to be the least polluting mode of transportation, emitting less greenhouse gases and harmful pollutants per passenger mile than planes, boats, trucks, buses, and cars. However, it's worth noting that the environmental impact of each transportation mode can vary depending on factors like the type of vehicle, fuel efficiency, and distance traveled.
How does carbon dioxide released by the burning of fossil fuels most likely affect earths climate?
1. It increases the acidity of earths water
2. It increases the amount of rain from clouds
3. It can contribute to global warming
4. It causes waterways to freeze at higher temperatures
