Answer me as soon as possible. Be fast.
Answers
Answer:
Advantages-
★Fossil fuels can generate a large amount of electricity at a single location.
★They can be found very easily.
★They are cost-effective. Transportation of oil and gas can be done easily through pipelines.
★They have become safer over time.
★Despite being a finite resource, it is available in plenty.
Disadvantages-
★Fossil fuels emit carbon dioxide when burnt which is a major greenhouse gas and the primary source of pollution. This has contributed to global warming.
★They are a non-renewable resource, i.e., once used they cannot be replaced.
★Combustion of fossil fuels makes the environment more acidic. This has led to unpredictable and negative changes in the environment.
★Harvesting of fossil fuels also causes fatal diseases among the people. For eg., the coal miners often suffer from Black Lung Disease. The natural gas drillers are constantly exposed to chemicals and silica which is dangerous for their health.

☛ Burning of coal and petroleum produces a lot of pollutants causing air pollution.
☛ Fossil fuels release oxides of carbon, nitrogen, sulphur, etc. that cause acid rain, which affects the soil fertility and potable water. ☛ Burning of fossil fuels produce gases such as carbon dioxide that causes global warming.
☛ They are a non-renewable resource, i.e., once used they cannot be replaced.
☛ Combustion of fossil fuels makes the environment more acidic.
☛ Release carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) when burnt – greenhouse gas.
