The consequences of misuse of energy sources
Answers
There are two types of natural resources, Inexhaustible Natural Resources and Exhaustible Natural Resource.
Inexhaustible Natural Resources: Resources which do not exhaust and which are available in plenty in nature are known as inexhaustible natural resources. For example; air, sunlight, etc.
Exhaustible Natural Resources: Resources which get exhausted and are not available in nature in plenty and are known as exhaustible natural resources. They take longer to get replenished. For example; coal, petroleum, forest, minerals, etc.
Coal is considered as fossil fuel as it is formed because of carbonization of dead remains of living organism. It is mined from earth and processed to obtain many useful products, such as coal, coke, coal tar, etc.
Petroleum: The word petroleum is used for both naturally occurring crude oil and other petroleum products which are obtained after refining of crude oil, such as petrol, diesel, etc. Petrol and diesel are highly consumed fuel today as these are used to run vehicles.
Natural gas is naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas. Natural gas is a mixture of methane, higher alkanes, carbon dioxide, etc. Natural gas is found in deep underground rock formation as fossil fuel. It is one of the most important fuels.
Some Natural Resources are limited: Petroleum, coal, natural gas, etc. are natural resources but available in limited amount. Thus, it is necessary to use them with care.
I don't think there will be much consequences, because we need energy for what, powering our vehicles, running power plants, cooking, running industries, generating electricity etc. so for all these purposes we have substitute, there are electric cars, inductions & microwave for cooking we are generating power by wind energy (which is a renewable source of energy), hydro electricity, using steam too & also most of the industries are using electric machines & equipment. But one field will be really affected & that's is space researches because currently we don't have a substitute for rocket fuel right now there is nothing much powerful to power a rocket except hydrazine (which is a fuel) but i'm sure scientists will find a way to substitute hydrazine with something more easily available.
So in future, i think everything will be under control, but that doesn't mean we can waste the current energy resources because it will eventually create dis-balance in the environment because everything have some negative & positive consequences!
