Fossil Fuel Industry
The fossil fuel industry encompasses the exploration, extraction, refining, and selling of energy resources derived from ancient organic materials, primarily coal, oil, and natural gas. These fuels are used globally for electricity generation, transportation, heating, and manufacturing. While fossil fuels have significantly powered economic growth and improved living standards, their combustion releases greenhouse gases, contributing to climate change. As a result, there are increasing efforts to transition to renewable energy sources, which are more sustainable and environmentally friendly. The industry faces challenges from both environmental concerns and evolving energy technologies.
