Abstract

The article discusses the problems on global energy. This paper focuses on the world's need of energy and the challenges the comes with it. Fossil fuel has become the main source of energy and the world is increasingly becoming dependent on it. How this can be satisfied is the major challenge faced in the 21st century. There are ways in achieving economical sources such as the explorable oils, natural gas, coal, and regenerative energy sources. However, the world must address the issues of limited resources on accessible fossil fuels and the increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere caused by burning of fossil fuels.
