Phosphorus energy is a good source of fertilizer for plants.  Phosphorus energy is produced in many different ways, even being found on Cassiopeia A (a supernova fragment), confirming that one type of phosphorus energy is produced by supernovae nucleosynthesis. But here on Earth, we're running out of this resource, which isn't a good help to the environment.

It is a greenhouse gas for it's ability to trap solar radiation and keep it confined to our atmosphere. This has caused global temperatures to increase, and melt polar ice caps.
