Teacher Example using Fossil Fuels
10
Fossil Fuels by: Ms. Gold and Mrs. Gagliano
11
Fossil fuels are coal, oil, and natural gas. These energy sources are formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals. We use fossil fuels for: – Electricity – In the steel industry – Synthetic fuels
12
Energy to Electricity Fossil fuels must be burned to release their stored energy
13
Fossil fuels in History 1816: Baltimore, Maryland, became the first city to light streets with gas made from coal. 200 BC: The Chinese used natural gas to make salt from salt water (brine) in gas-fired evaporators. 2008: For the first time, crude oil price broke $100 per barrel and gasoline prices broke $4.00 per gallon
14
Fossil fuels and the Environment Fossil fuels release emissions into the atmosphere Fossil fuels emissions can harm ecosystems
15
Did you know???? Advanced technologies like satellites, global positioning systems, remote sensing devices, and 3-D and 4-D seismic technologies make it possible to discover natural gas reserves while drilling fewer wells. A pound of coal supplies enough electricity to power ten 100-watt light bulbs for about an hour.
