Can use all the time and lasts for many years

No pollution after installing and able to use all the time

Earth provides solar energy continuously

What are DISADVANTAGES of Solar Energy?

Cannot use all the time, and creating solar panels causes pollution

Creates pollution and destroys rivers

Cannot be easily installed onto house, and does not work all the time

Destroys oceans and cannot use all the time

Which are ADVANTAGES of Wind Energy?

Does not create pollution after installing and lasts for many years.

Can use all the time and lasts for many years

No pollution after installing and able to use all the time

Earth provides solar energy continuously

What are DISADVANTAGES of Wind Energy?

Wind mills can harm flying animals nearby and some find them not attractive to a landscape

Creates pollution and destroys rivers

Cannot be easily installed onto house, and does not work all the time

Wind energy can create too much energy and create power surges

Which are ADVANTAGES of Geothermal Energy?

Does not create pollution and can be used all of the time.

Can use most of the time and lasts for many years

Only needs the sun to be powered

The sun provides geothermal energy continuously

What are DISADVANTAGES of Geothermal Energy?

Can only build in specific areas to use this type of energy

Creates pollution and destroys rivers

Cannot be easily installed onto house, and does not work all the time

Wind energy can create too much energy and create power surges

Which are ADVANTAGES of Hydroelectric Energy?

Does not create pollution and can be used all of the time.

Can used sometimes and lasts for many years

Only needs the thermal energy from water to be powered

The sun provides hydroelectric energy continuously

What are DISADVANTAGES of Hydroelectric Energy?

River/Water ecosystems can be destroyed to create dams and can cause droughts

Creates pollution and destroys rivers

Cannot be easily installed onto house, and does not work all the time

Wind energy can create too much energy and create power surges

Which are ADVANTAGES of Fossil Fuels?

Relatively cheap and make a lot of energy when burned

Does not create pollution and can be used all of the time.

We will never run out of these resources

The Earth can make more of these resources within 100 years

What are DISADVANTAGES of Fossil Fuels?

Creates pollution when burning, destroys earth to get the resources, will run out

Most people are not currently using this type of energy resource

We are not able to develop better/more reliable energy than fossil fuels

Which are ADVANTAGES of Nuclear Energy?

Creates only a low amount of air pollution and converts a lot of energy

Relatively cheap and can be replaced within a lifetime

We will never run out of these resources

The Earth can make more of these resources within 100 years

What are DISADVANTAGES of Nuclear energy?

Creates radioactive waste and plants have the risk of nuclear meltdowns.

Most people are not currently using this type of energy resource

We are not able to develop better/more reliable energy than nuclear energy

Splitting of radioactive elements into lighter elements

Combining of small elements into heavier elements

Requires temperatures over 100 million degrees Celsius

Combining of small elements into heavier elements

Splitting of radioactive elements into lighter elements

What is biomass energy?

any organic matter that can be used by burning wood and other plant life.

Radiant energy emitted by the sun.

a combustible black or dark brown rock consisting mainly of carbonized plant matter, found mainly in underground deposits and widely used as fuel.

made by tapping into steam or hot water reservoirs underground; the heat is used to drive an electrical generator.

In the recent past, humans have been looking for and trying out alternative sources of renewable energy to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. How can the energy from volcanoes be tapped for human use?

Geothermal energy can be used to generate electricity.

The lava can be used for cooking.

The energy from the magma can be used to heat water.

Geothermal energy can be tapped to produce steam used for heating showers.
