Energy plays a vital role in modern world and our day to day life, from lightening our homes and offices to driving our cars and aeroplanes. About 80 Percent energy that we use in modern world comes from fossil fuels

Therefore, we can say that we rely on fossil fuels for our energy demands to a lot of extent. The main sources of energy in the form of fossil fuels are only three that are coal, petroleum and natural gas.

However, the reason why fossil fuels are excessively used by world are :

Therefore, option number 4 is the best option.

Hope it help!
