Fossil fuels which are one of the basic sources of energy for all our activities are exhaustible. For example, coal, kerosene, and LPG are sources of energy for cooking, heating, burning in our households. Petrol and diesel used for transport and in industry are also derived from fossil fuels. A large fraction of electricity is produced by burning coal. Fuel wood, though renewable, is fast depleting due to excessive use. By judicious use of these resources one can conserve fossil fuels and reduce the cost of living.
