Conversion of energy from one form to another.

Movement of energy from one object or system to another.

The storage of energy in an object or system.

Chemical energy to mechanical energy

Thermal energy to sound energy

Electrical energy to light energy

Nuclear energy to kinetic energy

The practice of using energy wastefully and without regard for the environment.

The process of generating more energy to meet increasing demand.

The act of conserving natural resources other than energy.

The practice of reducing energy consumption and using energy efficiently to minimize waste and environmental impact.

To reduce demand for energy, save money, and reduce environmental impact.

To ignore energy usage, lose money, and increase environmental impact.

To promote energy consumption, spend money, and increase environmental impact.

To increase demand for energy, waste money, and increase environmental impact.

Renewable energy sources are sources of energy that are only available during certain times of the year.

Renewable energy sources are sources of energy that are harmful to the environment.

Renewable energy sources are sources of energy that are expensive and inefficient.

Solar power

Fossil fuels

Wind energy

Hydropower

By leaving lights and appliances on all the time

By turning off lights and appliances when not in use, using energy-efficient light bulbs, insulating our homes, using natural light and ventilation whenever possible, and reducing our reliance on fossil fuels by using renewable energy sources.

By using energy-inefficient light bulbs

By keeping our homes poorly insulated

Renewable energy sources have several advantages, including sustainability, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, energy independence, and job creation.

Renewable energy sources require a lot of land and space.

Renewable energy sources are unreliable and inconsistent.

Renewable energy sources are expensive and not cost-effective.
