ENERGY RESOURCES

BIOMASS

• Biomass is an organic matter that can be used as an energy source that is found on the surface
• It Is a renewable resource
• We use it for burning, bacterial decay,and fermentation
• Industries use it to make products
• Biomass can pollute the air

COAL

• Coal is a fossil fuel that is underground.
• It is a no renewable resource and it pollutes the air
• Indians used it to bake their pottery
• We burn coal to make electricity
• We have to mine for it

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY

• Geothermal energy is heat from within the Earth we dig wells and pump it to the surface
• It is a renewable resource
• We heat it to make electricity
• It is pollution free
• It won't run out

HYDROPOWER

• Hydropower is the force of moving water
• It is a renewable resource
• Water turns turbines to generate electricity
• It is found In the surface of water
• It is pollution free and is free to use

NATURAL GAS

• It is a fossil fuel
• It is a Nonrenewable resource
• It is beneath the ocean and we have to drill for it
• Industries burn it for heating
• It is pollution

PETROLEUM

• It is a fossil fuel
• It is Nonrenewable
• It is beneath the ocean and we drill for it
• We burn petroleum to make oil
• If is pollution

PROPANE

• Energy- rich gas that is related to petroleum and natural gas
• It is Nonrenewable
• It is found under ground and is mored through pipelines
• We liquify it then burn it to heat homes
• It can pollute the air

SOLAR ENERGY

• Energy of the sun
• It is renewable
• The sun makes its energy in earth's core
• It does not pollute the environment
• Solar panels store chemical energy which transfers into electricity

URANIUM( NUCLEAR ENERGY)

• Energy in the nucleus of an atom
• It is Nonrenewable
• It does not pollute the air but there is radioactivity
• It is underground and we mine for it
• We put it in a nuclear power-plant to generate heat

WIND

• Wind is air in motion
• It is renewable
• Wind energy turns turbines to produce electricity
• Wind energy is free to use
• Wind energy can be found almost anywhere
