Why does the use of coal ash reduce greenhouse gases?
The combustion of fossils fuels, such as coal, oil, gasoline and wood creates gases, which are released into the atmosphere. Some of these gases are trapped within the atmosphere and are thought to contribute to “global warming.” A number of studies show that human induced activity does not contribute significantly to global warming, because the earth’s temperatures were generally higher in the Middle Ages (even though the population and use of fossil fuels were much less than today).
