Nowadays the consequences of the use of fossil fuels cannot be neglected. That is why it is crucial for all international companies and the governments to reduce their consumption. I fully agree with this statement because the situation with climate crises deteriorates every day and immediate actions should be taken as soon as possible.
First of all, fossil fuels are not renewable types of energy and someday they will run out. Gas and oil production not only deplete the natural resources but also negatively impact the environment. Gradual implementation of renewable sources of energy such as solar and wind energy will mitigate the situation with climate crises. For instance, China is the top country where the government implemented the use of renewable sources of energy at the state level. As a result, carbon dioxide emissions were reduced by 3 billion tons over the decade.
Another problem with gas and oil consumption is connected with climate change. The average temperature increases every year that leads to global warming. Many animals living in the north suffer from global warming that puts them at the risk of extinction. For example, some months ago I read an article where polar bears were mentioned. Some of the species were mentioned on the suburbs of north Russian cities; glaciers had melted that encouraged some species to come to people in order to find any food. Thus, the use of fossil fuels all around the world contributes to the temperature rise and, as a result, global warming.
Overall, fossil fuels provide people with energy that all of us need. However, we cannot neglect the problems the use of gas and oil has created. It is high time to address it, using joint efforts among the governments and individuals as well.
