Have you ever thought about how your home is heated and cooled? Or how about how your cell phone gets charged or how you get to school?
Fossil fuels have an impact on accomplishing all of these tasks whether directly or indirectly. Most of the electricity that we use comes from energy stored in fossil fuels.
