What is one disadvantage of coal?
Coal produces air pollution.
There isn't a lot of coal left which makes it expensive.
The world isn't using a lot of coal which makes it an undesirable job.
You can only use it to roast hot dogs and cook hamburgers.
What is one disadvantage of renewable energy?
Electricity and power could become much cheaper.
Third world countries could have affordable energy.
Many people could become energy independent.
Most sources are expensive to get started.
How is geothermal energy harvested? (How do we get it?)
solar panels collect the sunlight.
The heat from the earth boils water to create steam.
We pump it from the earth and refine it into gasoline.
We drill for it and burn it like coal or wood.
What is one disadvantage of using hydropower?
Hydropower is a renewable energy resource. There are no disadvantages.
The power is used as electricity to power large buildings instead of homes.
Building dams can damage natural wildlife and water systems like lakes and rivers.
Most of the time there isn't enough water power to create electricity.

what does a wind turbine look like
How do geothermal power stations work
Cold water is heated up and the water power turbines under the water and turns it into electricity!
Cold water is pumped down and the cold water meets the hot water from inside the earth to produce steam to power turbines then creating electricity !
The hot water from inside the earth meets cold air and produces condensation which powers the turbines and turns it into electricity!
The electricity in our house is
AC
DC
BC
AD
