  1. Nonrenewable vs. Renewable Resources By: Brianna Shields March 8, 2005

  2. DO NOW • 1. Which alternative energy source uses the energy from the Earth’s interior (core) for power? • 2. Which alternative energy source uses the sun’s light for power? • 3. Which type of fossil fuel is made of compressed plant remains, and is solid in form?

  3. GOAL • To be able to distinguish between renewable and nonrenewable resources.

  4. REVIEW • What are fossil fuels composed of? (How are they created?)

  5. REVIEW • What are the three types of fossil fuels?

  6. REVIEW • Compare the benefits and consequences of using fossil fuels

  7. REVIEW • Determine which alternative energy source holds the most promise for use in the future. Support your opinion with a fact.

  8. REVIEW • Differentiate between hydroelectric and tidal power

  9. REVIEW • Differentiate between hydrogen and nuclear energy

  10. Pair Activity • Nonrenewable resources include • Oil • Coal • Natural Gas • See if you can come up with atleast 3 more resources that the Earth provides us with (either renewable or nonrenewable)

  11. Nonrenewable Resources When they are used up, they cannot be replaced by nature Nonrenewable Resources

  12. Nonrenewable Resource Examples 1. Fossil Fuels Coal Oil Natural Gas Nonrenewable Resources

  13. Nonrenewable Resource Examples 2. Minerals- mined, dug out of rocks and soil (Metals, gemstones) Nonrenewable Resources

  14. Renewable Resources Resources that are continuously replaced by nature Renewable Resources

  15. Renewable Resource Examples 1. Land USES: Soil Area for cities, farms, forests Produces food Renewable Resources

  16. Renewable Resource Examples 1. Land- Problems A. Dry Renewable Resources

  17. Renewable Resource Examples 1. Land- Problems B. Overgrowing crops Renewable Resources

  18. Renewable Resource Examples 1. Land- Problems C. Erosion Renewable Resources

  19. Renewable Resource Examples 1. Land- Problems D. Desertification Renewable Resources

  20. Soil Degradation

  21. Renewable Resource Examples 2. Water USES: for drinking, cooking, bathing, cleaning Renewable Resources

  22. Renewable Resource Examples 2. Water USES: Water cycle purifies Renewable Resources

  23. Renewable Resource Examples 2. Water PROBLEMS: Limited amount of freshwater 97% in oceans Renewable Resources

  24. Renewable Resource Examples 3. Animal Resources USES: Provides food and other products Renewable Resources

  25. Renewable Resource Examples 3. Animal Resources PROBLEM: using too much Renewable Resources

  26. NYS Natural Resources • Use the NYS resources packet to answer the questions pertaining to the renewable and nonrenewable resources of New York State.
