Nuclear is clean air energy and is sustainable, which is an advantage for the nuclear resource. The disadvantage for nuclear is the radiation that comes from the waste. Radiation can stay in the atmosphere for long periods of times and the radiation can harm human life later on. It produces the energy through what the factories find.
Coal is the least expensive out of all the resources and is a major factor in the nation’s electricity. A problem with coal is that the mining disturbs the land which then disrupts the environment around it. Mining releases huge amounts of methane. From the effects of the land being disturbed the disruption can affect the habitats of organisms. Crude oil can provide energy for the nations, but it is also bad for the environment. It is one of the main factors for global warming. From potential oil spills and ocean acidification, habitats and organisms can be in danger and can possibly die. Crude oil’s energy comes from the oil through the drilling. Natural gas provides energy for the nation, but if the gas leaks a person does not know. So the workers will add a chemical called mercaptan. Geologists have to use seismic surveys on land and in the ocean to drill the wells which can result in disturbing the land and ocean. They use small amounts of explosives as a vibration source to find the natural gas. The vibration disturbs the land and if no one knows the natural gas has leaked, the leakage can go beyond restoration. The energy produces electricity and heat for the communities which is why it is still being used. The non renewable resources are similar by their purpose. Each of them provide energy for the nation. The resources are different in the types of resources and how the energy is taken out of the world. https://create.piktochart.com/output/28046890-clean-coal-technology
