Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Coal is most often used for this. Making electricity
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Also known as crude oil petroleum
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD A major environmental concern as the result of burning fossil fuels Global warming
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The removal of oil from the ocean floor can lead to this. Oil spills
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Fossil fuels are these two types of resources. Nonenewable, energy
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Along with oxygen, this is a product of photosynthesis. Sugar (glucose)
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Photosynthesis converts light energy from the sun into this type of energy. chemical
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD These devices convert energy from the sun directly into electricity Photovoltaic cells
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The type of solar energy that absorbs light and heat from the sun naturally passive solar heating
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Solar collectors are used in this type of heating. Active solar
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The fuel used in nuclear power plants. uranium
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The release of these particles creates a nuclear fission chain reaction neutrons
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD A major disadvantage of nuclear energy is the production of this. Radioactive waste
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD To slow down the reaction in the nuclear power plant, these must be inserted Control rods
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD This is the part of the power plant that contains the splitting atoms. Fuel rod
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD This type of energy can be used to move ships and generate electricity Wind energy
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD The type of electricity produced from flowing water Hydroelectric energy
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Geothermal energy uses this to heat homes or produce electricity Heat inside the earth
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Three of the four types of renewable energy sources provided by the sun Solar, wind, hydroelectric, biomass
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD An example of a biomass fuel Wood, methane, ethanol
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD A process in which yeast break down sugar to make ethanol fermentation
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Gas produced from decaying garbage methane
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Burning wood converts chemical energy to this. Thermal (heat) energy
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD This type of biomass can also be a material resource wood
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Three examples of biomass fuels Wood, methane, ethanol
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Any material in the enrivonment that is used by humans is called this. Natural resource
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Daily Double!!! What gas is most responsible for the greenhouse effect? Carbon dioxide
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD Almost all of the energy on Earth comes from this The sun
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD This layer of the atmosphere protects us from UV radiation Ozone layer
Template by Bill Arcuri, WCSD This process keeps the earth warm Greenhouse effect
