1. ENERGY CRISIS … in Silicon Valley How will I be affected ???

2. Crisis = OPPORTUNITY DANGER OPPORTUNITY Silicon Carbon Silicon

3. Silicon Valley Powered By … Silicon Energy

4. Earth’s only energy source

5. NONRENEWABLE Oil –Gas –Coal Capturing the sun’s energy RENEWABLE  Wind Wind  Wave Wave  Biomass Biomass  Geothermal Geothermal –and  SILICON ENERGY (‘solar cells’) SILICON ENERGY

6. Decarbonizing Silicon Valley energy CARBON-based –Natural resources: coal, oil, gas –Limited Supply –Non-renewable SILICON-based –Natural resources: sand (quartz) –Abundant Supply –Renewable & Reusable

7. Periodic Table of Elements

9. Atomic Relationship Carbon Silicon

10. Journey Journey of a silicon atom SILICON in the star dust becomes Earth dust into new mountains dragonfly wings great scaly trees buried into the Earth CARBON coal plankton seagrass fishes the great dance of life oceans' sediment Pushed downward Earth's core warms Oil and Gas

11. Carbon cycle The carbon cycle is the complex path that carbon follows through the atmosphere, oceans, and soil; through plants and animals; and through fossil fuel formation and use.

12. How How solar (silicon) cells work When light hits a solar panel, an electron in a silicon atom is knocked from its orbit. This free electron is absorbed by another silicon atom … and on it goes from atom to atom creating a movement of electrons. This ‘electricity’ moves through a wire into a motor generating power to run our appliances.
