They produce electricity cheaper than most renewable sources

They are unreliable energy sources

Are a safe alternative when dealing with global warming

What are some positive and negative qualities of Coal?

Provides many jobs but creates pollution; acid runoff, and mine collapse

Almost all emissions are water vapor but location of plants and waste disposal are a problem

Are a safe alternative when dealing with global warming

What happens at oil refiners?

Oil is heated and at various temperatures can be separated into usable products

Oil is fracked into different materials

Impurities are added to the oil

Biomass chemicals are burned to produce energy

Why can fossil fuels be thought of as stored solar energy?

Fossil fuels start out as plants and plants need sunlight to grow

The Sun created fossil fuels when it created the planets

100's of millions of years ago there was no energy other than the Sun

Thoroughly trace the flow of energy from the Sun through the food you eat to a glowing light bulb. Please think of the lab section 6 with the hand generator, and this should be put in your own words.

The Sun provides energy to plants, which is then transferred to animals when they eat the plants. Humans consume these plants and animals, converting the energy into mechanical energy using a hand generator, which finally powers a light bulb.

The Sun's energy is directly converted into electricity by solar panels, which then powers a light bulb.

The Sun's energy is stored in fossil fuels, which are burned to generate electricity for a light bulb.

The Sun's energy is used by wind turbines to generate electricity, which powers a light bulb.
