Fossil fuels
Across
- 2. Petroleum is an example of this
- 8. Impacted by habitat disruption and pollution associated with fossil fuel activities.
- 10. A solid form of fossil fuels formed from fossilized plants
- 11. Resulting from fossil fuel-related emissions, impacting oceans and aquatic ecosystems.
- 12. An area in which a large number of items are produced. Common in cities and has high carbon emissions.
- 13. A large source of fossil fuel usage which many American cities depend on. A form of transportation.
- 15. A potent greenhouse gas released during the extraction and use of fossil fuels.
- 16. Depletion linked to certain emissions from fossil fuel activities.
- 17. A form of air pollution resulting from the combustion of fossil fuels.
- 18. Derived predominantly from fossil fuels, affecting global energy landscapes. Can also be obtained from renewable sources.
Down
- 1. Gases released during the burning of fossil fuels, contributing to air pollution.
- 3. A general form of energy, including coal, oil, and natural gas.
- 4. Part of the carbon cycle in which fossil fuels are burned.
- 5. This is changing due to the emission of greenhouse gasses.
- 6. Burning fossil fuels causes this to boil, causing turbines to spin and producing energy.
- 7. The increase in the number and density of cities
- 9. Altered landscapes due to hydroelectric dams, sometimes associated with fossil fuel-related projects.
- 10. This cycle includes combustion, in which fossil fuels are burned.
- 14. Alternative energy sources crucial for reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
