Fossil fuels corregido
Fossil fuels generate approximately 90% of the world's electricity. They are burned to heat water, create steam, turn turbines, and generate electricity, though this process produces air pollution. While fossil fuels allow for large-scale electricity production and transportation via pipelines, they are non-renewable and their combustion contributes significantly to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions.
The finite times
Underground mining and surface mining are used to collect coal. For underground mining, deep tunnels are built and miners use elevators to reach the coal deposits. Once collected, the top layers of soil and rock are replaced. Coal is a hard black or brown rock that can be burned as a fuel source. It provides an important source of electricity but the heavy worldwide usage of over 5.3 billion tons per year means the supply will not last forever and burning coal harms the environment by contributing to global warming. Better management of coal resources could include reducing usage through recycling and using cleaner energy sources from plants equipped with pollution control technology.
Coal
Coal provides 21% of the world's energy consumption and is expected to continue powering cities for the next 25+ years until cleaner alternatives can fully replace it. Coal is dug up from mines, crushed into powder, and burned to heat water and create steam that spins turbines to generate electricity. While coal mining provides an important source of energy, it also has environmental impacts and dangers for miners from toxic gases.

Carbon dioxide
Professor Ian Plimer, an Australian geologist and professor, argues that volcanic eruptions negate efforts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. He notes that the 2010 eruption in Iceland emitted more CO2 in four days than all of humanity's reduction efforts in five years. Additionally, the 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo released more greenhouse gases than all of human emissions up until that point. Given the significant emissions from natural sources like volcanoes and fires, human efforts to reduce CO2 are negligible and will not impact climate change, according to Professor Plimer.
Energy Conservation
The document discusses several issues with burning fossil fuels for energy, including the release of large amounts of carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide that cause global warming, acid rain, droughts, and floods by raising average global temperatures. It also notes problems like pollution, the development of smog, and damage to the ozone layer. While nuclear energy produces dangerous radioactive waste, the document advocates conserving fossil fuels and developing alternative energy sources like wind, hydroelectric, solar, tidal, geothermal, and biomass energies since fossil fuel reserves are limited and will be depleted within 40-200 years.
Fossil fuels
Fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas are natural resources that were formed over millions of years from the remains of ancient plants and animals. Coal forms from decayed plant matter that is buried and undergoes heating and pressure over time. Oil and natural gas similarly form from the remains of sea creatures buried deep underground. These fossil fuels are important sources of energy that are extracted and refined to produce many everyday products like gasoline, plastics, and electricity. However, accidents like oil spills can cause significant environmental damage.
The fossily thingy
Fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas were formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals over millions of years. Coal forms from decayed vegetation, oil forms from animal and plant remains, and natural gas forms from buried organic matter. These fossil fuels are non-renewable resources that provide energy when burned but also release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, contributing to global warming over time.

- A CHP receives, processes, stores and feeds coal to boiler bunkers. Its main goal is to supply processed coal to coal mills.
- Main components include wagon tipplers, crushers, conveyor belts, feeders, bunkers. Coal is crushed to different sizes and conveyed to bunkers or storage.
- Coal is transported mainly by railways in wagons and unloaded by rotary or side tipplers. Other transport modes include ropeways and road.
- The document outlines the operating sequence,
Biodiesel
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel made from vegetable oils and animal fats that can be used in diesel engines. It has advantages like being cheaper and more environmentally friendly than petroleum diesel, but producing it on a large scale could use up land needed for food crops and pure biodiesel does not flow well in cold weather. The document lists some Alberta companies and experts that work with biodiesel and advocates lobbying the government to support biodiesel due to its environmental and health benefits.
Hydroelectric Energy Jessie And Shelby
- Water flowing through dams is used to generate hydroelectric power. Water stored in reservoirs flows through penstocks, turning turbines that spin generators to produce electricity. The electricity is transformed and travels through power lines to homes and businesses.
- Hydroelectric energy has advantages of being renewable, having minimal environmental impact, and providing useful levels of energy production. However, it relies on available fast-flowing water sources and can impact fish and river life. This type of energy would not be supported in Alberta due to its flat landscape lacking places for dam installation.

The document lists some Alberta companies and experts that work with biodiesel and advocates lobbying the government to support biodiesel due to its environmental and health benefits.
Wind Energy
Wind energy is collected through windmills that convert wind power into mechanical energy through turbines. It has advantages like providing an unlimited supply of energy, producing a lot of electricity while being inexpensive and causing little pollution. However, it also takes up a lot of space and requires clearing forests to build wind farms. Major companies in wind energy include Atco Electric, Enmax, Sky Generation, Suncor, Acciona, and Enbridge. Support should be lobbied for wind power because Alberta has plenty of wind resources and open areas to develop new farms with minimal pollution produced while generating significant energy.
Oil Energy
Oil is extracted from the ground and refined into fuels like gasoline and diesel. It is also burned at power plants to generate electricity. Oil has advantages as an energy source because it is easily transportable and can be burned to produce reliable electricity. However, oil is non-renewable and burning it releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, contributing to global warming. Some groups lobby against oil energy and advocate for more sustainable alternatives.
Geothermal2
Geothermal energy harnesses heat from the Earth's core through radioactive waste and absorbed solar energy. It works by capturing this heat and releasing it to generate energy without pollution. Key advantages are that it is non-polluting, cheap to produce, and requires fewer power plants than other energy sources. However, geothermal sources can eventually run out and production can be unpredictable. The document lists several Alberta-based geothermal companies and both authors would lobby for geothermal energy due to its clean, renewable nature.
Wind Energy
Wind energy is collected through windmills that convert wind power into mechanical energy through turbines. It has advantages like providing an unlimited supply of energy, producing a lot of electricity while being inexpensive and causing little pollution. However, it takes up a lot of space and requires clearing forests. Major companies that use wind energy include Atco Electric, Enmax, Sky Generation, Suncor, Acciona, and Enbridge. It should be supported through lobbying since Alberta has plenty of wind resources and open areas to develop wind farms with minimal pollution impact.
hydro energy
Hydro energy is produced by releasing water from dams into turbines that convert the kinetic energy of the flowing water into electrical energy. Dams have advantages like being pollution-free and producing steady power once built. However, dams also have disadvantages like taking up significant space, destroying wildlife by flooding land, and being very costly to construct. Nearby examples of hydroelectric dams include the Bighorn Dam and Hoover Dam.
