because when fossil fuels are burned, the fossil fuels are running out more and more and so scientists are trying to figure out a way for fossil fuels to become more of a renewable resourse then a nonrenewable resource so that way we have more of a likely cause that we will have a future use of all the fossil fuel that are about to run out just like an extinct species.

Today, more than 1/3 of our nation depends on this fuel source for electricity, meaning when oil and gas companies let it escape into the atmosphere, it not only accelerates global warming, it also results in massive amounts of wasted resources and diminishes our energy independence.

Efficiency is very important in the case of fossil fuel power stations because fossil fuels are a finite resource — once we use them they are gone — and when burned they produce carbon dioxide and other substances that kill people and cause climate change and ocean acidification; so it is very important to get as much electricity as we possibly can per tonne of fossil fuel.
