6 Carbon dioxide emissions per unit of energy produced

7 Fossil Fuels: Hydrocarbons Coal: black solid, carbon rings Oil: liquid, long hydrocarbon chains Natural Gas: 1C to 3C so light, it’s a gas!

36 Conventional Oil as energy source

37 Non-conventional Oil (not in a liquid form that can be drilled and pumped) 1.Oil Shale: US has largest supply 2.Tar Sands: Canada has largest supply

Majority of US oil shale is on federal lands, requires federal agreement to develop. In situ and ex situ extraction.
