Can someone please do this for me, I have heavy work for some other classes and can never find time to do this one :/(94 points)

dang, you are really trying to get everyone to do your heavy lifting lol.

I'll do coal. and maybe a little more.

Explanation:

Coal What is it?

Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock, formed as rock strata called coal seams. Coal is mostly carbon with variable amounts of other elements; chiefly hydrogen, sulfur, oxygen, and nitrogen.

Coal How we obtain it:

Coal can be extracted from the earth either by surface mining or underground mining. Once coal has been extracted, it can be used directly (for heating and industrial processes) or to fuel power plants for electricity. If coal is less than 61 meters (200 feet) underground, it can be extracted through surface mining.

Coal Pros:

Coal is plentiful in many places and it is easy to access through mining, so people rely on it to produce energy. Coal is easy to store. Once it is mined it can be safely stored with no hazard of fire or explosion like there is with gas or oil. It is relatively easy and inexpensive to convert coal into energy.

Coal Cons:

Coal is nonrenewable.  Coal contains the most CO2 per BTU, the largest contributor to global warming.  Severe environmental, social, and health, and safety impacts of coal mining.  The devastation of the environment around coal mines is heavy.  High cost of transporting coal to centralized power plants. Coal is really dirty and not good.

Solar What is it?

Solar energy is radiant light and heat from the Sun that is harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as solar heating, photovoltaics, solar thermal energy, solar architecture, molten salt power plants and artificial photosynthesis.

Solar How we obtain it:

Solar technologies convert sunlight into electrical energy either through photovoltaic (PV) panels or through mirrors that concentrate solar radiation. This energy can be used to generate electricity or be stored in batteries or thermal storage.

Solar Pros:

It's clean energy. Solar power is pollution-free and causes no greenhouse gases to be emitted after installation.  It has reduced dependence on foreign oil and fossil fuels.  It is renewable clean power that is available every day of the year, even cloudy days produce some power.  It gives a return on investment unlike paying for utility bills.

Solar Cons:

Solar doesn't work at night. Solar panels are not attractive. You can't install a home solar system yourself. My roof isn't right for solar. Solar hurts the environment. Not all solar panels are high quality.
