WRITTEN Q

\-fossil fuel def

\-why fossil fuel non-renewable

\-how it impact environment
\-nonrenewable resource that comes from dead animals + plants from millions ago @ bottom of ocean

\-bc limited supply / once run out, cant get more

\-bc burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide (greenhouse gas)

→ sun radient energy and is trapped in earth’s atmosphere to warm earth BUT we burn more (excess) = more heat trapped = warmer earth/increase temperature

= warmer ocean = ocean acidification/dead marine life = we cant eat fishies!!

= melt glaciers = higher sea level = flood

= heat waves
56
New cards
pick 2 renewable energy sources

\-describe

\-2 pro + cons
SOLAR

\-comes from the sun → can capture its radient energy by solar panels to be turned into electricity

\-pros: reduce electricity bill + accessible since everywhere gets sunlight

\-con: expensive upfront cost + weather dependent (since it won’t during the night/wont be as effective on cloudy days)

\
HYDROELECTRIC

\-from KE of flow of water + PE of height of water, the motion of water spins turbine in generator (which makes electricity)

\-pros: safe since fuelled by water (does not release any greenhouse gases/no oil spills) + long lasting (50-100 years)

\-cons: blocks fish passage + risk of flood
57
New cards
MAYBE OPEN END

nuclear

\-pro + coon

\-impact environment
most nuclear plants come from splitting of atoms

\-pro: more efficient (runs 24/7, not dependent)

\-con: the waste is hazardous
