Fossil fuels are non-renewable; and to propose the development and use of nuclear energy to replace the billions of tons of coal, oil, and gas annually consumed, is, as Schumacher says, to solve the fuel issue by creating such a monstrous ecological problem that we should be terrified.
Fossil fuels can be used, but renewable resource must provide at least 75 percent of the total energy input.
Fossil fuels (oil, gas and coal) are needed for most industrial and manufacturing processes either as fuel and/or to make the product.
John Fielding,
CEO

Since fossil fuels are the engine of our economy, the taxes required to reduce emissions by 30 percent will stifle business.
Because fossil fuels are non-renewable and are being exponentially consumed, they will be unable to sustain an expanding global industrial economy.
Fossil fuels provide today's principal energy source, and energy is essential for all economic growth.
Richard Hosking,
Paranormal Investigator

Fossil fuels, metals, and minerals must not be extracted at a faster pace than they can be redeposited into the Earth's crust.
Fossil fuels are got through drilling and excavation works into rocks, which cause damage not only to the excavation site, but also through the release of dust and other materials into the air, land and waterways that can affect the natural environment.
Arthur Dawkins,
Astro-physicist

Since all fossil fuels originally got their energy from the sun, if one were to measure electrical generation from fossil fuels relative to the original solar energy source the efficiency would be a fraction of a percent!
Even if fossil fuels were inexhaustible, their unacceptable environmental impact would still dictate that renewable solar hydrogen energy technologies and resources be developed and used.
Proved reserves are those quantities of fossil fuels that geological and engineering information indicate with reasonable certainty can be recovered in the future from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions.
Bob Greenberg,
Congressional Candidate

Cannabis hemp is the only annually renewable plant able to replace fossil fuels and thereby reduce their unhealthy and dangerous effects.
