Next, predict what you believe will be the long-term effects of using natural gas in domestic and industrial applications. Propose one (1) alternative for domestic and industrial applications that currently use natural gas.Do you think we will ever be able to produce energy from biomass to contribute significantly to our energy supply? Why or why not? Next, regardless of your answer, do you believe the government should or should not be investing in biofuels research to advance this technology? Justify your response.If you were in charge of ensuring that your state or country had enough energy in the long run, name two (2) strategies you would implement. Next, select one (1) area where you would invest your budget; then, provide an explanation as to why you chose those areas.
Explanation / Answer
The advantages of using natural gas as a source of energy in the domestic and industrial purposes are-
1) the resources are less polluting as compared to those of the man made ones.
2) rhe resources are very cheap and that is why everyone would get to use it in the society.
the disadvantages of using natural gas in domestic and industrial purposes are-
1) the resources are less in number. So they might be over exploited with the growing demands of the population.
2) a lot of resources is required to power the domestic and industrial required capitals since they have very less calorific values.
One of the altenatives where the natural gas is used in the domestic and industrial applications is the productions of electrical energy by hydroelectric origin.
The growing needs of the populations are almost impossible to feed by these natural resources. For this purpose a lot of amount of the material is required which is not provided by the natural systems.
According to personal view, natural resources should be used within a limit. The limit should not be crossed where the deficiency of the same would be harmful and the excess can neither be oversaturated as the artificial ones are also being very expensive for the common people to have access over it. This brings us to a point that the government should try to invest very logically regarding the use of natural resources or natural gas for the domestic and industrial purposes.
The two strategies that a leader might follow so that the country would not be hampered in terms of availability of energy are-
1) the people whould try to establish more and more ideas about the usage of the natural resources in more effective and efficient ways.
2) poeple should be taught more about the increasing needs of non polluting artificial fuels which might have the benefits of using a natural gas in its original form.
