Los combustibles f\u00f3siles, como el carb\u00f3n, el petr\u00f3leo y el gas natural, son el fantasma del movimiento ecol\u00f3gico. Son conocidos por su gran cantidad de gases de efecto invernadero cuando se queman para obtener energ\u00eda. Conduciendo a nuestro clima peligrosamente cambiante. Adem\u00e1s de eso, los m\u00e9todos utilizados para acceder a estas fuentes de combustible (que son el fracking, las arenas bituminosas y la miner\u00eda extensiva) pueden ser significativamente da\u00f1inos para el medio ambiente<\/p>\n\n\n\n
En otras palabras, la adicci\u00f3n de la civilizaci\u00f3n a los combustibles f\u00f3siles est\u00e1 destruyendo y envenenando nuestro planeta. \u00a1Pero todav\u00eda los estamos aprovechando para obtener energ\u00eda! Esto es bastante preocupante, pero primero entendamos por qu\u00e9 ...<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No. 1: Eficiencia energ\u00e9tica<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u00a1Un hecho relevante sobre los combustibles f\u00f3siles es que son fant\u00e1sticos en su trabajo! Es decir, producir energ\u00eda. Las reservas de combustibles f\u00f3siles de la Tierra se formaron durante millones de a\u00f1os a medida que el material org\u00e1nico de las plantas y los microorganismos se comprim\u00eda y se convert\u00eda en dep\u00f3sitos de carbono, b\u00e1sicamente dep\u00f3sitos de energ\u00eda condensada. Es por eso que los combustibles son incre\u00edblemente densos en energ\u00eda, lo que significa que un poco de combustible f\u00f3sil puede producir toneladas de energ\u00eda para toneladas de lugares. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Esta cualidad de alta densidad energ\u00e9tica hizo que Europa adoptara la madera en lugar del carb\u00f3n como fuente de combustible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n No. 2: Comodidad <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Como se dijo antes, los combustibles f\u00f3siles son el resultado de procesos naturales de millones de a\u00f1os. Si bien se necesita m\u00e1s tiempo para transformar la madera en carb\u00f3n, estos combustibles f\u00f3siles ya han pasado este tiempo de transformaci\u00f3n y, por lo tanto, est\u00e1n listos para ser utilizados. Para utilizar mejores fuentes de energ\u00eda, primero debe pensar en los niveles de eficiencia de cada una de estas fuentes. Esto significa que es clave comprender la forma en que se recopilan, transforman y almacenan antes de que pueda comenzar a considerar su uso. Los combustibles f\u00f3siles, por otro lado, no requieren innovaci\u00f3n en absoluto. Entonces, el proceso de recolectar y almacenar la energ\u00eda en combustibles f\u00f3siles ya se ha completado. Es por eso que tambi\u00e9n se les conoce como \"ready-made\" porque pueden aprovechar su energ\u00eda en cualquier lugar y en cualquier momento. <\/p>\n\n\n\n No. 3: Log\u00edstica<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n El \u00faltimo factor que hace que los combustibles f\u00f3siles sean atractivos es el hecho de que han sido la principal fuente de energ\u00eda en gran parte del mundo durante los \u00faltimos dos siglos. Puede que estos a\u00f1os no parezcan tan largos en el esquema de las cosas, pero estos 200 a\u00f1os fueron m\u00e1s importantes que la mayor\u00eda debido a la revoluci\u00f3n industrial.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Source: University of Arkansas blog of sustainability.
