Coal getting burnt

Coals liquid

Introduction! ! This is a information report about coal. In this report I will explain what coal is, how is coal made,what is coal and What Are Some Problems With Electricity and Fossil Fuels?. The report also contains some pictures and descriptions to help you understand mor about coal.

A combustible and a sedimentary rock

What is coal! Coal is a combustible and a sedimentary rock. This means it can be burnt very well. Coal takes millions of years to create. It is a non-renewable energy source and it will eventually run out because people burnt it and then it becomes useless. Coal is an abundant fossil fuel. There is a lot of abundant fossil fuels around the world and for these days it is easy to nd coal on the surface. In the future there will be a limited amount of coal and it will be very hard to nd coal.

What coal is made out of

How Coal is made?! Coal is made from a lot of minerals underground pushed together. Coal is made from the energy which is stored by plants. It is stored by plants because a layer of dead plants at the bottom of the swamps were covered of layers of water and dirt, trapping the energy of the dead plants. The heat and pressure made the plants remain for a long time then it was made into.

Pollution and electricity being wasted at the same time

What Are Some Problems With Electricity and Fossil Fuels? ! One of the most common ways to produce electricity is by burning fossil fuels.In fossil fuels there are coal, oil and natural gas. When fossil fuels get burned, it releases carbon dioxide into atmosphere and it leads to acid rain and global warming. These are big problems for our environment.! Another concern is that we will run out of fossil fuels in the future. Fossil fuels are non renewable resources that means that it will take millions of years to create. So that's why we should start developing and managing new ways to use renewable recources such as wind and water power.

Coal that is mined and shaped

Conclusion! ! This information report was about coal. In this report you learned about what is coal,how is coal made,what is coal and What Are Some Problems With Electricity and Fossil Fuels?. We should stop burning coal because in 20-30 years we will have a limited amount of coal so we should do something right away.!

About Author ! ! My name is Aastha Sureka. I am a student. I study in NIST. I wrote this coal report because we really need to care for the earth because it is going to be a hard life in around 20-30 years. Also we need to keep our planet green and I also hope that we will manage our natural recourses well in the future.
