in gcse's for 2018, its probably not the best thing to call them abundant as we now know that they are going to run out very soon, probably in our lifetime.
I understand what you are saying but in the time before we can get renewable energy to high levels of efficiency, we will still be relying on the fossil fuels, and it could be ages before renewables are good enough to replace the fossil fuels, and also predictions have informed us that levels of fossil fuels are extremely low
If I had a coal power station, and I was using catalysts to split the CO2 released and then re-using the oxygen and carbon to burn and make more energy, I would have cycle where I don't need to be supplied with much coal. Where would the energy actually be coming from? Since I'm just re-using the same stuff. Probably a flaw in this concept, partly why I'm asking.
Well, it's a good question but what you're describing would violate the Law of Conservation of Energy (energy can neither be created, nor destroyed, only transferred from one form to another). And no catalyst can do that. So it's impossible I'm afraid.
The world currently has a lot of them so they are "abundant" but its future challenges are that they will eventually run out which makes them "non renewable"
Adisa Ali Abundant means that theres a large quantity of it and this point/moment For example theres an abudant amount of kelloges cereal in aldi Non renewable means that it will eventually run out if we keep using it and we cannot form new ones. Eg if everyone just started to eat kelloges the abundance will decrease and if kelloges decided to stop making cereal- the kelloges cereal will eventually run out
i always watch the ads on these videos. gotta keep my man shaun in business
Funny u say that as I was just watching an ad lmaoo
yessir
😀
HAHAHAHA
"Gotta keep my man in business" is hilarious
this man is a national icon
I'm glad that you're finding the videos useful.
Freesciencelessons - We need more vids, come back. My GCSE’s are soon.
@@Freesciencelessons how are you so humble????
@@Freesciencelessons Yess thank youuu lol haha
"Fossil fuels are abundant and relatively cheap" (1:26)
Then I realized this video was made in 2017...
@@mohammadjouda749 not enough...
Lol
2022, sigh its terribly worse
bru-
lol
lool
watch the views go up night before exam;)
you were right...
So true 😂
ayo that's me right now XD
This man helps me to get through my GCSEs
hello sir I'd like to thank you for making these videos. You've helped me a lot
Thx this video really helped me get through my science test!
It’s either yeet or be yeeted lads
throwing shade at the renewable sources

They will never run out. Renewable technology will mean that they are simply left in the ground.
I understand what you are saying but in the time before we can get renewable energy to high levels of efficiency, we will still be relying on the fossil fuels, and it could be ages before renewables are good enough to replace the fossil fuels, and also predictions have informed us that levels of fossil fuels are extremely low
I think that they will be gradually phased out to the point where they are used only for chemicals and not for energy but who knows what might happen?
True. This little discussion was actually useful as well as your videos, thanks.
@@Freesciencelessons legend
I have a cover teacher for science and it’s really hard to understand so this really helps
ah cramming
my favourite pass time
thank you so much this video really helped me in my exams
literally the best revision
this was amazing thanks a lot sir!
can you make a video on monoclonal antibodies
this man deserves a knighting from the queen
frfr
i dont think thats possible now
YOU ARE THE REASON IM NOT FAILINGSCIENCE THANK YOU SO MUCH FBDBFDBFBDSFSF
What does the last part of your comment mean?
Shaun my main man 🤝😏
This video was amazing!
I love this man
My man put a Bmw in a physics lesson
b3 dialysis would be helpful if you could do a video on that
my mistake you have already done this
I love u are my saviour thank u
Would these vids still be relevant for my gcse which are coming up soon
Yes they will be relevant until the next spec change and we don't know when that it is yet.
@@Freesciencelessons ok ty
How many ties do you have?
You wear a new one for every video
lets be fair this is the only thing I understand in Physics
LMAO 2 hours to go before the exam, hahahhaa just wait till my grades come out hahahahha
I am curious. What did you get?
If I had a coal power station, and I was using catalysts to split the CO2 released and then re-using the oxygen and carbon to burn and make more energy, I would have cycle where I don't need to be supplied with much coal. Where would the energy actually be coming from? Since I'm just re-using the same stuff. Probably a flaw in this concept, partly why I'm asking.

@@Freesciencelessons Well is there some way CO2 can be used to create energy? Does is spin a turbine?
@@ewanmeek2 energy can't ever be created
How can they be abundant and non-renewable at the same time?
The world currently has a lot of them so they are "abundant" but its future challenges are that they will eventually run out which makes them "non renewable"
Adisa Ali
Abundant means that theres a large quantity of it and this point/moment
For example theres an abudant amount of kelloges cereal in aldi
Non renewable means that it will eventually run out if we keep using it and we cannot form new ones.
Eg if everyone just started to eat kelloges the abundance will decrease and if kelloges decided to stop making cereal- the kelloges cereal will eventually run out
there's a lot of them at the moment but they're finite so will one day run out
I'm 2 weeks late, but we have a lot of fossil fuels, but it doesn't mean we can make more of them?
@@nourmal1950 yea in 50 million years
Thank you so much. :)
i worship you freesciencelessons
2 hour till my exam
😢
Will this still be relevant in 2026?
yeppp
My man looks like peter capaldi
no. stop.
Fossil fuels are not cheap any more sir
