Natural gas as a better source of energy compared to Oil
Topic discussion
This is an investigation on the reasons why natural gas could be the preferred source of energy in the world. The paper is more centralized on making a comparison between natural gas and oil basing on several factors such as efficiency, costs, effects on the environment, economic impact, social impacts and geographical effects of the use of each. An investigation of the advantages of using natural gas over oil and some of its disadvantages will reveal how natural gas could be a better source of energy. Therefore, the study is designed to try and create awareness of the possibility …show more content…

Moreover, in the near future, there would be no choice as the oil reserves will be depleted and it is better to start adopting new and better sources of energy not only for economic and environmental purposes but to ensure energy sustainability in the future (ABA, 2013). Personally, I have witnessed the negative impacts of overdependence on oil, and one of it is the increasing oil prices which have negatively affected many economies especially those that do not produce oil. Another negative effect of over-dependence on oil is the devastating effects that it brings to the environment. It is with reference to these issues that I chose to carry out this study to analyze the advantages of using natural gas over oil. Several studies have been previously carried out with regard to energy, including the study on the effects that different sources of energy have on the environment (USEIA, 2009), but none of them focused on the advantages of natural gas, and that is exactly what this research will …show more content…

Data for this research will be collected through interviews, a review of previous records. An interview with an expert in the field of energy will be conducted to collect relevant information that may help to prove that natural gas is a better source of energy than oil. And a literary review and analysis of all the relevant work that has been done previously on this and related topics will be discussed. From the previous and current energy records, a lot of information will be collected about the different factors and trends in the use of energy in the world. Some of this information will include the trends in the use of various sources of energy, the economic impact of natural gas and oil, the environmental, social and political impact of the use of these two sources of

Aside from the benefit of the renewable energy source, The Gas Replacer has additional benefits. Three benefits of The Gas Replacer will be discussed in this report. The first benefit of The Gas Replacer is the availability and low cost of biofuels will help significantly bring down the operating cost of The Gas Replacer and as a result, will assist in the initial cost of The Gas Replacer. However, no official price has been set for The Gas

They are two crucial aspects to the topic of energy, but are not included by the UN. A determinant reason that millions of people across the globe have to resort to biomass to cook is that the cost associated with modern energy makes it less accessible (Birol, p.1). This unfortunate situation is due to many reasons. A key reason is that many of the resources required to install energy plants are disproportionally controlled by a few geopolitical actors. This causes large fluctuations on the commodity prices all over the globe, making not only modern energy, but also other basic human development targets, such as shelters and transportations less attainable (Regnier, p.2).

The air quality improves by using natural gas to generate electricity instead of coal. The use of natural gas reduces carbon dioxide emissions causing a decrease in air pollution. Some argue that since fracking allows us to obtain more oil, our dependency on foreign oil will decrease. Since our dependency should decrease other foreign countries will lower their tax rates. They will lower taxes because they know we are not dependent of them and their oil.

Throughout the centuries, humans have been attempting to find a way to power homes, cars, and other luxuries in the most efficient way possible. Coal and oil were two major sources that begin being exploited during the industrial revolution. Both have caused great controversy over the years from lawsuits to strikes. A new way to drill oil, hydraulic fracturing, was discovered and was an efficient means of drilling until its effects became prevalent. Also, when coal began to run out, a new method called mountaintop removal took hold, but continues to damage the earth.

The oil and gas industry are one of the most prominent industries in the world with many countries participating in drilling operations. Saudi Arabia, UAE, China, and the USA are some of the biggest names in oil and gas production nowadays. A process of extracting natural gases called Fracking has been the subject of debate in recent years with many people concerned with the risks associated with Fracking. Shale gas is the primary gas extracted from fracking operation and experts predict it will make up about 30 percent of the world’s natural gas production by 2040 (LSE, 2022), which has made many countries and business interested in the gas due to the high profit margins. Others are more concerned with the negative impacts that fracking might

Since the industrial revolution,oil energy consumption has risen considerably. The majority of this energy consumption is supplied by fossil fuel like coal and natural gas. For some time,there has been a lot of talk about the controversial method of extracting natural gas i.e Fracking or Hydraulic fracturing. In simple words,Fracking describes recovery of natural gas from the deep layers inside the earth. In this method porous rock is fractured with the use of water,sand and chemicals in order to release the enclosed natural gas.

I: Monster's body is a cultural body I believe that some of the important key points for this thesis are monsters stands for something else and they’re not just a monster. They also express our fears and anxieties as a society, and they are a product of time place and feeling. I think that in that sense monsters are symbolizing human beings, especially when it comes to the emotion side of it. II: The monster always escapes Few of the points that I understood from Cohen on this thesis is that the monster either gets away and comes back or you kill one and it is replaced by more.
