why?

Answer 1

Fuel is a natural resource that produces useful energy when it undergoes a chemical or nuclear reaction. Coal, wood, oil, petrol or gas provides energy when burned so we consider them fuel. But as we all know fuel is not man made and it occurs only naturally so its judicious use is much more needed not for today but for future generation too. We do not need fuel only to run our vehicles only but it needs to run our life and better environment too.


Our environment is being affected due to combustion of fuels by the automotive. The automobiles run on petrol or diesel, the automotive burn the fuels to run the automobiles .The burned fuels are released into the environment, this released smoke or burned fuels are depleting the Ozone layer of the earth. Due to the depletion of Ozone layer, Greenhouse effect is taking place and the earth is getting heated up and burning from inside. These all are affecting our health badly. At the same time though it is also bad for the environment and the more petrol we use the more emissions we create. It is high time that humanity was off of fossil fuels and use alternative sources of it. To have a great impact on our health and the environment isn’t an easy task. But if we are motivated and really want to adjust our lifestyle in order to develop positive habits, and to do our part to change the negative trends against the environment and save Fuel deposit, this is a must. Saving fuel for the future is therefore an urgent necessity.



Chemical fuels have broadly been classified into three categories – Solid fuel, Liquid fuel and Gaseous fuel. Solid fuels include wood, cow dung, charcoal and coke to name a few. Liquid fuels include petroleum which is processed to form various varieties of liquid fuels such diesel, naphtha, kerosene, etc. Natural gases come under the category of gaseous fuels. These are processed and converted into CNG, blast furnace gas, methane and coal gas for various purposes. Nuclear fuels on the other hand are divided into two categories – Fission and Fusion. Each of these fuels has its own unique utility. We use most of these to carry out our day to day tasks.


Fuels are fast depleting from the surface of the earth. This is because their demand is growing at a rapid speed whereas its supply is limited. We must use these substances wisely so that they do not get exhausted.
