The USA is the 4th biggest and the first developed country over the world. Fortunately, the Texas State is the energy center of the USA because it has a lot of natural resources including fossil energy. Fossil fuels are inseparable from our modern lives. The intense energy requirements for industrial production of the Industrial Revolution created a need to find fossil fuels (Smith 4). At present, we need large, rapidly increasing amounts of energy to heat and cool our houses, to illuminate the dark, and to power our appliances. We have come to rely on electricity to power in our every life in many aspects (Hengeveld 77).

There are already happenedsymptoms of our environment destroying in many aspects here and there. For atmosphere, it contains kinds of unnecessary and toxic gases gaining from consumption of energy. Carbon dioxide leads to increase temperature our planet.Moreover, Methane, which comes from coal mines is more effective to cause climate warming than carbon dioxide. Methane is twenty times as effective as carbon dioxide in withholding infrared radiation, the heat radiation causing climate warming, it could greatly add to the greenhouse effect of the atmosphere if large amounts accidentally escaped into the air while it was being mined.
