A group of environmentalists was discussing the benefits and drawbacks associated with using fossil fuels. Which argument best f
its the conversation? Fossil fuels are cheaper than alternative forms of energy.
Fossil fuel reserves will never be depleted.
Fossil fuels are easily renewed.
Fossil fuel use does not affect the environment.
The correct answer is - Fossil fuels are cheaper than alternative forms of energy.
Explanation:
Fossil fuels are made by the natural process in a longer time period such as anaerobic decomposition of the dead organism like plants, and animals. These plants and animal's decomposed organic matter pilled up to form coal, or natural gases or crude oil.
By the use of such fuels the reserves are continuously depleting and will be no longer available in the future if not managed properly as it can not be renewed. Fossil fuels increases the green house gases in environment and affect it by incresing carbon in atmosphere. However, these fuels are cheaper in comparision of other fuels.
Thus, the correct answer is - Fossil fuels are cheaper than alternative forms of energy.
