Fossil fuels have become an important source of energy worldwide, but the process of extracting and transporting them can greatly affect the planet. This title examines the different methods for extracting oil, natural gas, and coal as well as how fossil fuels can pollute the environment and cause health issues in both humans and animals. It also looks at steps being taken to regulate fossil fuel extraction, ways in which activists have taken action against the use of fossil fuels, and how everyday people can get involved. Features include a glossary, references, websites, source notes, and an index. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards.
