Energy

Obtaining Energy

• Solar Energy:
• To have solar energy you must have lots of space and lots of money.
• Solar energy comes from the sun.
• Solar panels are an example of solar energy.

Obtaining Energy

• Oils:
• long process.
• drilling in the earth.
• very expensive.

Obtaining Energy

• Nuclear:
• causes sink holes in the earths surface.
• a very long process.

Obtaining Energy

• Nuclear Energy:
• no pollution.
• needs large sources of water and is a very expensive process.

Transforming Energy

• Oil:
• heated,add chemicals then tested.
• Coal:
• dangerous,a long hard process of sifting coal out of the earths surface.
• Natural Gas:a process under the sea and ground.

DISTRIBUTING ENERGY

• Pipeline:
• underground.
• take oil from refrains and were moving oil from one port to another.

DISTRIBUTING ENERGY

• Ships:
• ships transport oil from country to country.
• Energy Lines & substations:
• energy lines run through many parts of the world.
• substations can be mobile and transported.

nonrenewable: OIL:

Nonrenewable: COAL:

• Coal is non-renewable.
• Coal is formed from the remains of dead animals and plants.
• Underground mine-very dangerous and can contaminate water.
• 7,000 power plants.

Renewable:

• solar energy:energy from the sun. Energy from the sun can be used as heat
• and electricity.
• wind energy:energy from moving air. Wind energy can be produced by wind
• turbines.

Renewable:

• geothermal energy:geothermal energy uses the heat from within the earth
• geothermal energy is used to heat buildings and produce electricity.   
• Hydropower: energy from moving water .Hydropower is the largest  
• renewable energy source in the united states that helps generate 
• electricity. 

Renewable:

• Biomass:energy from plants and animals.
• Biomass contains stored energy from the sun.
• Examples of biomass:wood,crops,animal 
• manure,and human sewage.

Impacts

• Nuclear- radioactive waste
• heated waste water from nuclear plants harms aquatic life life fish 
• greenhouse gasses

Impacts

• Biomass:pollution such as gas or liquid waste nitrogen oxide.
• Uses some fossil fuels
• has a terrible smell

Conservation

• Turn off lights that are not being used
• Turn off any computers or electrronics that are not bing used
