Fossil Fuel Impacts Global dependence on fossil fuels is not sustainable.
Increasing Population, Affluence & Technology Increasing Global Energy Demand
Primary Energy 86% of global primary energy consumption is fossil fuels.
Fossil Fuels • Oil (Petroleum) • Coal • Natural Gas • Shale Oil • Tar Sands
CO2 Emission C + O2 CO2
Non-Sustainable Energy • Fossil Fuel Energy is not sustainable because although it does meet the energy needs of the present , • it compromises the ability of future generations to meet their own energy needs (by depleting fossil fuel supplies) and • it degrades the natural environment.
