Les Energies Fossiles en Algérie Face à un Environment Changeant = Fossil Energy in Algeria in the Face of a Changing Environment

Energy and the environment are two basic elements for studying sustainable development in a country, Algeria is a large Mediterranean country with a population of more than 38 million (ONS, 2015), High energy capacity, particularly in the hydrocarbon sector. Facing a changing climate environment, this needs long-term actions and programs for the protection of the environment. In Algeria, the hydrocarbons sector is a strategic sector for energy, but not in the long term, among petroleum products fossil fuels; Crude oil, natural gas the latter are classified in non-renewable energies and contain toxic products, such as sulfur and nitrogen and benzene (crude oil) and this can cause global warming. At the same time, Algeria is entering a new energy transition and is thinking of other energies for its sustainable development such as renewable energies, the sun represents the basic source of these energies. For several centuries, the use of fossil fuels has allowed rapid development in large-scale industrial in some parts of the world. Fossil energy has replaced the energy of water mills and the thermal energy produced by burning wood. Fossil fuels have also allowed an unprecedented development of the automobile and aircraft, so fossil fuels can participate in the development of road transport and air transport. The exploitation of these fuels is the cause of the environmental problems related to the ecological disruption linked ISSN: 2325-0798 ةيداصتقلااو ةينوناقلا تاساردلل داهتجلاا ةلجم DOI:5424/IJO/21547 لا دلجم : 70 لا ددع : 70 ةنسلا 8702 46 to their extraction and their use, with the global warming that would be responsible for the green house gases such as the carbon dioxide emitted by their combustion.
