What is the Military trying to do to overcome this problem? 2.What types of “renewable resources” is the article talking about? 3.What other benefits are there for using “alternative” sources of energy in our daily lives?

2. Daily Goal SWBAT differentiate between the different types of energy (traditional vs. alternative) 2.8.1 Critique the benefits, costs and environmental impact of various alternative sources of energy for North Carolina (solar, wind, biofuels, nuclear fusion, fuel cells, wave power, geothermal) Evaluate which sources of alternative energy may work best in different parts of the state and why.

6. OCTOBER IS ENERGY AWARENESS MONTH! How much energy do you use?

7. Similarities? Differences? *Hint: think type of resource

8. Traditional Energy Sources Use of conventional technology Burning of fossil fuels Produces dangerous gases resulting in air pollution Produces large amounts of electrical power Many believe that conventional technology is the only way to produce enough electricity for us all.

9. Alternative Energy Sources Uses the natural world & its resources Usually does not create air pollution (only in small amounts) At present only provides small amounts of our electrical power Research to discover new methods & uses

10. Sources of Energy Traditional Energy The use of conventional technology to produce electrical power normally results in pollution that affects everyone. It often relies on the burning of fossil fuels that produce dangerous gases that often end up in the atmosphere. People and animals breathe in the polluted air and plants absorb the pollution. Large amounts of electrical power can be produced through the use of conventional technology. Because of our large towns and cities and large populations many believe that conventional technology is the only way to produce enough electricity for us all. Alternative Energy Alternative energy is normally produced by harnessing the natural world around us and the elements. Usually it does not create pollution in the atmosphere or at least it only produces small amounts. At present alternative energy only provides us with small amounts of electrical power and much investment is required to increase the amount of electricity produced in this more natural way.

14. NAME THAT ENERGY SOURCE!

15. I am a renewable source of energy that converts the sun’s radiation into other forms of energy.

16. I am a renewable source of energy made by burning garbage, wood, crops, landfill gases, or other organic material made from plants and animals.

17. I am a nonrenewable source of energy that takes millions of years to make, from the decayed remains of dead plants and animals. Methane is my main ingredient.

18. I am a renewable source of energy create by using turbines, although some people think my turbines are not visually appealing

19. I am a nonrenewable source of energy and I can be used to make several other products such as detergents, paints, and fertilizers. I have to be pumped from deep under water and because I’m so rare, I am often a reason for the start of wars.

20. I use the heat from within the earth to harness energy, and most of my reservoirs are found around the Ring of Fire

21. I am the most abundant fossil fuel.

22. I am a renewable type of energy that uses dams. Although I produce very clean energy, my dams have a finite lifetime and the availability of locations to build more is limited.

23. A disadvantage to using me is that if a meltdown occurs, I can have very harmful effects on human health and the environment. However, since I use uranium, I don’t emit any air pollution or carbon dioxide.

24. Many are concerned with the environmental impact that strip-mining and underground mining for me may have.
