3 World population Can stabilize after fertility rates fall below replacement level

4 Resource most impacted water

5 Diseases Dysentery—spread through unsafe water sources TB—spread through close contact then international travel Malaria—spread through global warming providing increases in disease carrying mosquitoes

6 What We Use

7 Five Factors that influence value of fuel Cost Availability Safety Energy Content Byproducts of the fuel’s use

8 Resources vs Reserves http://www.shell.us/home/content/usa/envir onment_society/education/teacher/interacti ve_activities/

9 Fossil Fuels Are readily available and inexpensive compared to alternative energy sources

10 How Fossil Fuels Got Their Name http://www.shell.us/ho me/content/usa/enviro nment_society/educat ion/teacher/interactive _activities/

11 All About Coal http:// www.shell.us/h ome/content/usa/envir onment_society/educ ation/teacher/interacti ve_activities /

12 How Coal is Formed

13 Pockets of oil and natural gas may become trapped between layers of non- porous rock

14 Types of Coal http://www.shell.us/home/content/usa/envir onment_society/education/teacher/interacti ve_activities/

15 Nuclear Energy

17 Pros/Cons of Nuclear Pro--- does not produce an air pollution very efficient energy Con— difficulty of safe storage of waste high costs possibility of nuclear melt down

18 What do Coal and Nuclear Have in Common? generators turnbines

19 Fission and Fusion http://www.shell.us/ho me/content/usa/enviro nment_society/educat ion/teacher/interactive _activities/

20 Non-renewable Energy Sources

21 Natural Gas Natural gas is usually found underground near an oil source. It is a mixture of light hydrocarbons including methane, ethane, propane, butane, and pentane. Natural gas is the cleanest burning fossil fuel.

23 Energy Use

24 Carbon Footprint

25 How to Reduce Your Carbon Footprint Unplug! Drink from the Tap! CFLs Recycle Eat local products

26

27 Renewable Energy

28 Wind Energy Fastest growing energy source in the world

29 How Solar Power Works

30

31 Geo-Thermal Power

32 How GeoThermal Works Ground is colder than the air in summer and warmer than the air in winter

33 Tidal Power

34 Electromagnetic Power

35 Hydroelectric Power

36 Wave Power

37 Sustainability Human needs are met in such a way that a human population can survive indefinitely

38 What you can to influence the environment Vote Think globally, act locally Consumer choices
