NONRENEWABLE AND RENEWABLE RESOURCES
4
What do you think nonrenewable resources are?
HMMMM.... What do you think nonrenewable resources are? Break it down... Nonrenewable? Resource?
5
NONRENEWABLE RESOURCES
Natural resource that cannot be re-made or re-grown at the rate its being used (consumed)
6
NUCLEAR ENERGY Nuclear fission uses uranium to create energy.
Nonrenewable resource because once the uranium is used, it is gone!
7
FOSSIL FUELS Coal, oil, natural gas
Can’t be replenished in a short period of time Formed over millions of years
8
HOW IS COAL MADE ???
9
HOW ARE OIL AND GAS MADE ???
10
WHAT WAS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COAL AND OIL/GAS?
11
MINERALS Mined, dug out of rocks and soil Metals (gold, silver, etc.)
Gemstones (diamond, sapphire, ruby)
12
HMMMM.... If nonrenewable resources are resources that cannot be re-made at a scale comparable to its consumption, what are renewable resources?
13
RENEWABLE RESOURCES Renewable resources are natural resources that can be replenished in a short period of time.
14
SOLAR Energy from the sun SUN: Ultimate sources of energy on Earth
Advantage: No harmful emissions; “free” fuel” Disadvantage: Need lots of land
15
GEOTHERMAL Energy from Earth’s heat.
Advantage: Doesn’t harm environment Disadvantage: only available in some places
16
WIND Energy from the wind Advantage: potentially lots of energy
Disadvantage: lots of land used, not pretty
17
BIOMASS Energy from burning organic or living matter
Includes wood, dried field crops Advantage: renewable Disadvantage: air pollution from burning
18
WATER or HYDROELECTRIC
Energy from the flow of water Advantage: No burning; efficient Disadvantage: flood habitat
19
ANIMAL & ANIMAL RESOURCES
Provides food and other products Advantage: Renewable; can grow/produce more Disadvantage: using too much; waste production
20
EFFICIENCY Use of energy resources in the most productive ways
21
SUSTAINABILITY Involves the global management of Earth’s natural resources to meet current and future needs WITHOUT causing environmental damage! Protecting resources for future generations!
22
