Solution
- Energy obtained from fossil fuels is not green energy because fossil fuels, such as coal, petroleum, and natural gas, are non-renewable resources and are available in limited quantities.
- When fossil fuels are burned, they release carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and other pollutants, which cause air pollution, global warming, and environmental degradation.
- Green energy sources are renewable and produce little or no pollution, whereas fossil fuels are non-renewable and pollute.
Therefore, energy obtained from fossil fuels is not considered green energy.
