Population Increase • We came up with three main factors we need to address: • Food • Water • Energy
Energy • From our “Meteorite Lab” we decided on a definition for Energy. • Energy is the ability to cause a change. • In our every day lives….we use energy to power all of our devices that we take for granted.
Energy Research Project • Here are a few things we need to address: • How does your particular energy “source” transform one type of energy to another type of energy (how does it work)? • What are some positives? • What are some negatives? • What percentage of the energy used in the United States is this type? Worldwide? • What is your opinion on this…should we be using more or less of this particular type of energy “source”? Why?
Here are our energy source choices: Wind Solar Coal Hydro Nuclear Geothermal Natural Gas Biomass Energy Research Project
Energy Research Project • Here are our energy source choices: • Wind • Solar • Coal • Hydro • Nuclear • Geothermal • Natural Gas • Biomass
Energy Research Project • Your Power Point should answer these questions: • How does your particular energy “source” transform one type of energy to another type of energy (how does it work)? • What are some positives? • What are some negatives? • What percentage of the energy used in the United States is this type? Worldwide? • What is your opinion on this…should we be using more or less of this particular type of energy “source”? Why?
Energy Research Project • What you need: • A works cited list • Power Point slides • These Power Point slides should contain your research information on them and should be plainly formatted. • Help each other out with how to make the Power Point. I’ll be back next week to help you finish it up.
