On the carbon intensity of different energy sources
Between heaven and earth, there are many energy sources, and their use in the world is related to the livelihood of all people and the rise and fall of countries. And the difference in carbon intensity cannot be ignored.

Looking at energy sources, coal has a high carbon content. It is mined from the ground, and it is mostly used to burn heat and generate electricity. However, when it is burned, more carbon is released into the atmosphere, so the carbon intensity is huge. Every time coal is used for energy generation, the amount of carbon emitted is considerable, which adds to the greenhouse effect of the environment.

There is also oil, which is also a common energy source. It is used in transportation, industry, to drive vehicles and ships, and to operate machinery. However, when oil is burned, it also emits carbon, and its carbon intensity is not low. Although it has a wide range of uses, its impact on carbon emissions should not be underestimated.

As for natural gas, compared with coal and oil, its carbon intensity is slightly lower. With its main component methane, it burns more net and emits relatively little carbon. In the energy structure, it gradually shows its clean advantages and can be an option for carbon reduction.

In addition, renewable energy, such as solar energy, wind energy, water energy, etc. This kind of energy is taken naturally and inexhaustible. When it comes to energy generation, it has almost no carbon emissions and has almost zero carbon intensity. Solar energy relies on the heat of the sun, wind energy relies on the flow of wind, and water energy depends on the drop of water. They are all forces of nature, do not generate carbon damage, and are the hope of future energy.

Therefore, in order to reduce carbon intensity and protect the world's environment, we should gradually reduce the dependence on high-carbon-intensity energy such as coal and oil, and widely promote the use of natural gas, especially the development of renewable energy. In this way, the use of energy and the protection of the environment can go hand in hand, leaving green mountains and green water for future generations, and the blessing will continue.
