The most of global energy production produces from fossil fuel such as coal, oil and natural gas. The vast fossil fuels generate energy which use for many purposes for instant residential, transportation and industrial sectors. While the rate consumption of fossil fuel higher than their formation leads to oil price crisis. Another concern of fossil fuel combustion is the impact on the environment. Global warming is a significant problem which results in increasing concentrations of greenhouse gas
What is energy resources Natural resources are useful raw materials that we get from the Earth. They appear without any intervention from human, Instead, human can use and modify natural resources in ways that we can get benefit from it.in another word they are opportunities of an area offers to generate electricity depending on its natural circumstances. Natural energy resources can be divided in two essential types. • Renewable • Nonrenewable Let’s see why there is a noticeable increase in resources
natural gas are currently the world’s largest energy supply sources. However, all of it is non-renewable resources which means that it will take extremely long time to be formed and with the huge amount of consumption rate, one day the world will ran out of its main energy source. Therefore, alternative energy sources are needed to cut off the dependence on fossil fuels. One of the best alternative energy sources is ethanol. Ethanol is a renewable energy source as it uses sunlight, which will last almost
of the most promising areas for biomass-based energy systems lies in the production of liquid transportation fuels (Fulton, Howes, & Hardy, 2004; Grahn, Azar, Lindgren, Berndes, & Gielen, 2007; Mastny, 2006; Searcy, Flynn, Ghafoori, & Kumar, 2007). While the transportation sector is currently one of the major consumers of fossil fuels and the biggest contributor to environmental pollution, biomass-based biofuels are a readily available “clean-energy alternative” (Speight, 2008; Scurlock, 2005) that
to energy conservation? Many consider efficiently using energy and hence conserving it as a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Energy conservation reduces the need for energy services and can result in increased environmental quality, national security, personal finance security and higher savings. What is energy conservation Energy conservation are efforts made to reduce the consumption
Risks associated æ Mitigating the risks æ Future Plans Executive Summary Business Overview Energy, especially from fossil fuels, is a key ingredient for all sectors of a modern economy and plays a fundamental role in improving the quality of life in less developed economies. In 2007, India is ranked fifth in the world in terms of energy demand; accounting for 3.6% of total energy consumed, and is expected to grow at 4.8% in the future. India imports 70% of the oil it uses, and the country

Contributing more than 10.3% to the world´s gross domestic product, this sector needs special attention (WTO, 2006). As sustainability is a rising concern in nearly all areas of living the tourism industry is highly affected. When talking about sustainability, there
meaningful employment. The “spaceship” metaphor from “Lifeboat Ethics” refers to the Earth with a limited amount of resources. It is our duty to develop technological solutions to reduce, reuse, and recycle our raw materials and natural resources. The Earth as a lifeboat, at our rate of consumption, will eventually run o...
INTRODUCTION With 82.1 million barrels extracted everyday, it is hard to believe that a resource that the world so heavily relies on will soon be gone (Aleklett, 2012, p.17). This paper will explore the effects of the oil crash on society and how we can address the sustainability and find a solution. In this paper, I will support my opinion that something must be done about the consumption and extraction rates of oil and that we cannot live like this forever. In the first paragraphs, I will compare
creating a very different planet.” -James Hansen . Fuel plays a very significant role in the day to day aspects of life, to an extent where we see it trending as an essential need and a vital source for survival. Defiantly as the quote mentioned previously stands, we cannot consume these limited fuel sources without producing a mutant planet far from what we know of. However, we could rather prevent these outcomes from occurring through the many other alternatives, that is, through green initiatives
