There are all kinds of energy resources that can help make our lives easier. What I'm going to talk about is natural gas, which is a fossil fuel and I'm going to talk about how it's used and how we can conserve it. I will do the same with geothermal energy on how it is used and how we can store it. Natural gas is colorless, odorless and is a vital source that emits a lot of energy when burned. It is a non-renewable resource because it is a fossil fuel. It is also composed of methane, but also ethane, propane, butane and pentane. It is one of the cleanest, safest and most useful sources of energy and is a vital component of the world's oil supply. Natural gas burns cleanly and emits lower levels of potentially harmful byproducts into the air. (NaturalGas.org, 2004) The process of extracting natural gas is a long and time-consuming process. Within 4 to 8 weeks, workers secure a facility and attempt to run final experiments and then work as experimental analysts on the facility. Then, over the course of 4 or 5 weeks, they build a drilling and drilling rig, then place a layer of concrete on top to make sure the well and its surrounding formations remain safe. Then they do work on the rig that takes 2 to 5 days, they use hydraulic fracturing which puts together a mixture of 90% water, 9.5% sand and 0.5% chemicals in the well at high pressure to keep the vents open. slots, which allow gas to flow. The next step is the production of natural gas, which can take up to 25-40 years to produce. The well is monitored to make sure nothing has happened to it. (aboutnaturalgas.com, 2003) The cost of natural gas to import into the United States is $3.41. It also costs $3.83 to export to the United States. The commercial price is $...... half of the card ...... excerpted from http://www.livestrong.com/article/160037-what-are-the-benefits-of- saving-electricity• conserve-energy-future.com. (2013).
