Fossil fuels are essential for producing electricity, powering industry and fuelling transportation. However, one day we will reach a point when all the world's foss.0il fuels have been depleted. How can we conserve these resources? What are some alternatives to fossil fuels?
With the drastic increase in population over the
last
century, energy
consumption per capita has consequently
increased. In other words
, the number of fossil fuels
utilised to power trades, transport and produce electricity
will eventually reach a level where the world will have the need to function with substitutes. In this
essay, I will be explaining ways in which energy
can be preserved and other substitutes to fossil fuels
.
Firstly
, the preservation of natural resources for a sustainable future can be attained by implementing methods to minimise energy
wastage such
as electricity
. Replacing electricity
operated equipment with low energy
consuming ones will reduce wastage. Also
, there are certain practices around the world that aim to reduce consumption such
as, the earth hour which encourages everyone to switch off electricity
for one hour once a year. In addition
, where transportation is concerned, there is a huge demand for fuel. Hence
, switching back to different forms of travel such
as using a bicycle as an alternative to a car for considerable distances could reduce the dependency on fuel operated vehicles. This
could not only reduce carbon pollution but also
increase the health and fitness of individuals.
Secondly
, if the world faces a complete loss of fossil fuels
, there should be other options for humankind to survive such
as bioenergy, solar power, and wind energy
, these are a few options from many. For instance
, a survey in the UK reported the average electricity
usage per month has declined 85% following the introduction of solar energy
. As a supplement to different energy
form, bioenergy energy
that is
derived from renewable biomass (living organic material) is considered the future energy
system as it is carbon neutral.
In ,conclusion fossil fuels
need to be used carefully to ensure sustainability, as explained above, appropriate measured to conserve and options to replace energy
could assist people to be prepared for the future.Submitted by rcbota12 on
