Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) are still essential for transportation, electricity generation, heating, plant operations, and so much more. But they are also the main source of CO2 emissions and, unlike renewable energies, are produced from exhaustib

You might have heard that renewable energy is developing at a fast speed while fossil fuels are going the way of the dinosaur, which means extinct. But you still may think: What does all this talk mean? We will cover all the essential things that you should know about renewable energy and fossil fuels. We will also discuss the primary differences between the two.
Renewable energy is useful energy that is collected from renewable resources, which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, and are carbon neutral. • The sources of renewable energy are as follows: • Sunlight • Wind • Rain • Tides • Waves • Geothermal heat
Fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural means, such as an anaerobic disintegration of buried dead organisms, comprising organic molecules originating in early photosynthesis that produce energy in combustion. • Some of the Fossil Fuels are as follows: • Coal • Petroleum • Natural gas • Oil
