By discovering and harnessing the earth's vast reserves of coal, oil, and natural gas, modern civilization released from the constraints imposed by traditional energy flows. Overconsumption of natural resources has led to some environmental problems, such as climate change, global warming, greenhouse gas emissions, decreasing groundwater levels, and so on. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive overview of the natural resource industries, their environmental problems, and recommendations that can be implemented.
