Fossil Fuels

 Here I have created a picture based on my latest research. Fossil fuels are coal oil and natural gas, these fuels where formed from the remains of living organisms over millions of years. About three quarters of electricity generated in the UK is fueled by fossil fuels.
There are many disadvantages to using fossil fuels as a main source of energy as over the years it has increasingly caused harm to the environment and is becoming a larger problem today, for example the rise of global warming. Fossil fuels are a non renewable source of energy, and the supply is limited. There is a solution to this and it is to encourage the use of renewable energy, which I will be looking into in more depth.

The Brief

Regen SW would like to invite you to work alone or collaboratively to create a 2D piece of artwork and/or text that explores an aspect of sustainable energy. 

The resulting artworks will be:

·         Profiled on the website power-culture.com – A blog that explores our energy generation through the arts and is shared via Regen SW’s networks and social media channels with the sustainable energy sector

·         Displayed at an Art & Energy symposium in October 2016 and The South West Green Energy Awards in Bath in November 2016

·        Considered by The Institution for Civil Engineers for display in bus stops across the South West.
