P 197, 1 Describe the worldwide use of renewable energy as shown in graph A.

More than half of all renewable energy comes from ​ (a)   where rivers have had dams constructed along them. ​ (b)   power is the next largest. Many wind turbines have been built to benefit from reliable prevailing winds. Solar panel development allows sunshine to be harnessed to ​ (c)   solar power. These account for ​ (d)   percent of renewable energy generated. A smaller amount comes from plants such as biogas and the remainder comes from geothermal energy that is only available in certain parts of the world such as ​ (e)   , where there are thermal springs.

Approximately, what % of the world's energy comes from fossil fuels?

• 22

• 44

• 66

• 88

• 99

Where do fossil fuels originally come from?

• Outer space
• Underwater volcanoes
• Artificially created in laboratories
• From the center of the Earth
• Solar energy

Answer explanation

Fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, are formed from the remains of plants and microorganisms that lived millions of years ago. These organisms captured and stored solar energy through photosynthesis. Over time, the organic matter was buried and subjected to heat and pressure, leading to the formation of fossil fuels. Therefore, fossil fuels can be considered a stored form of solar energy from ancient times

Why Global energy consumption has increased over the last 100 years

• Decreased demand for energy in various sectors
• underpopulation

• Population growth

• Industrialization

• increased number of electrical gadgets
