2. Wind energy captured by the turbine does not cause air pollution.
Why do you think people are working to increase the amount of power we get from wind?
Wind energy captured by the turbine does not cause air pollution.
Fine particulates: a complex mixture of extremely small particles and liquid droplets. Particle pollution is made up of a number of components, including acids (such as nitrates and sulfates), organic chemicals, metals, and soil or dust particles.

4. You will become on expert on:
Fossil Fuel
Solar Energy
Biomass Fuel
Examples of natural resources include water, sunlight, trees, coal, oil

5. KNOW: Three major fossil fuels
coal
oil
natural gas
Lawmakers are often influenced by lobbyists. Lobbying is act of attempting to influence decisions made by officials in a government, most often legislators or members of regulatory agencies.

6. Fossil Fuels Fossil Fuels are made of hydrocarbons.
These are chemical compounds that contain carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms. When they are burned, they react to oxygen and release energy in the form of heat and light.

7. Common uses of fossil fuels
Coal
Oil
Natural gas
Uses:
Fertilizer
Medicine
Steel (when heated)
Electricity
Uses:
As gasoline and diesel fuels to power vehicles
To heat homes
To make plastics and other products
Uses:
Electricity
To cook food
To heat homes
Of an individual, of a country

8. Coal formation Coal formation takes millions of years. 3. coal
2. Peat (which can be burned as fuel).

1. Decomposing plant matter

9. OIL: il From the Latin: petra = rock oleum = oil
Petroleum is another name for oil.
From the Latin:
petra = rock
oleum = oil il
An international organization dedicated to sustainable forest management

10. Oil just taken from the ground is crude oil
Oil just taken from the ground is crude oil. It needs to be heated and separated in a refinery in order to become fuel.
Aquaculture: difficult to maintain; can cause pollution and spread disease into the wild fish population.

11. Petrochemicals
Compounds that are made from crude oil
Plastics Medicines Cosmetics Paints
Clothing, medicine, and tourism in brazil, costa rica, and kenya Sea otters eat sea urchins. Without sea otters, sea urchans destroyed the kelp forests.

12. Natural Gas
Natural gas is made from some of the same organisms as oil, but it is less dense. It often rises above an oil deposit, forming a pocket of gas in rock.
FUN FACT #1: Natural gas can be compressed into a liquid and stored in tanks as fuel for truck and buses!
The rainforest biome has fairly constant temperatures and lots of rainfall – a continuous growing season that supports more species..
FUN FACT #2: Natural gas has no odor, but gas companies add the smell so that you can detect a gas leak.
