In this day and age, economic development has increased the demand for the consumption of fossil fuels all over the world. With this in mind, all countries are relying on energy sources from gas and oil, which has brought about many environmental problems, such as water and air pollution. In my opinion, the international community should come up with some significant solutions as soon as possible to reduce fossil fuel consumption.
It is important to acknowledge that fossil fuel exploitation creates a lot of CO2 in the air. According to research, CO2 emissions are the original reason that caused the greenhouse effect, which led to global warming. As a consequence, CO2 emissions have been increasing our planet’s average temperature annually. Governments of every country should take practical actions on the production of CO2 from factories, especially in the manufacturing industry.
Moreover, cutting out the consumption of fossil fuels will also create a huge motivation for scientists to create sustainable energy sources. New kinds of sustainable energy sources are the key to creating a planet that is environmentally friendly. For example, ideas of using solar power have been spreading throughout the world for many years, which has contributed to the reduction of fossil fuel consumption. Sustainable energy sources will open the doors for many companies to reduce their expenses on energy from fossil fuels.
In conclusion, all countries have to take part in the process of reducing the consumption of fossil fuels. This process has a long way to go and should be considered carefully so that humanity will not meet with extinction in the future.
