Generators make electrons flow. The generator needs fuel to work, too. Most of that fuel comes from materials that have been forming since the days of dinosaurs. Oil, coal, and gas started forming under the earth’s surface out of plant and animal remains hundreds of millions of years ago. Nowadays, humans use fossil fuels faster than the planet can replenish them. They are non-renewable resources.According to BP's Statistical Review of World Energy, global oil reserves at the end of 2012 were 1.7 trillion barrels. Given that the world consumes about 86 million barrels of crude oil per day, it would be easy to conclude we'll run out of oil in 55 years, or sooner if we increase production consumption.]]> 2017-04-30 17:20:16 UTC https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169068295 nishwalgora https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169068779 Fuels are one of the most important substances on earth. They cook your food, heat your home, and keep the cars and trains running. Without fuels the world would be a different place. A fuel is a substance that burns to release energy. To put it another way a fuel is a substance that reacts exothermically with oxygen.

Fossil fuels are non-renewable, that is, they draw on finite resources that will eventually dwindle, becoming too expensive or too environmentally damaging to retrieve. In contrast, the many types of renewable energy resources-such as wind and solar energy-are constantly replenished and will never run out.]]> 2017-04-30 18:00:51 UTC https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169070488 nishwalgora https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169070587 How its presence affects us:]]> 2017-04-30 18:02:50 UTC https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169070587 amroegypt2000 https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169072009  Hospitals and clinics will become less effective. Without electricity certain life saving surgeries and treatments will not be able to save the old and ailing. This will result in high death rates. Disease control may become ineffective and inadequate in the uselessness of electric machinery used for such purposes.
1. Children don’t have access to lifesaving vaccines
Each year 1.5 million children die from diseases like diarrhea, pneumonia and measles, which could easily be prevented by cheap and effective vaccines. But hospitals and clinics without electricity will not have the infrastructure to store and distribute these lifesaving medicines.
To work properly, most vaccines need to be kept within a carefully controlled temperature range of 0 to 10°C, and this requires a powered fridge. It’s estimated that half of all vaccines delivered to developing countries are ruined because of unreliable or non-existent power.
2. Medical instruments go unsterilised
We take it for granted that the surgical instruments used by our doctors have been properly sterilised. Using boiling water to clean surgical instruments is not 100% reliable as some microbes can survive the process. The only way to be completely safe is to use powered equipment like dry heat sterilisers.
3. Essential medical equipment is unavailable
Without power, essential medical equipment is  unavailable . This includes ultrasound machines – vital for detecting life-threatening complications in pregnancy – incubators for newborn babies, HIV diagnostic equipment, X-ray machines and blood storage.
The most basic equipment of all is decent lighting. This is absolutely critical in childbirth or emergency situations, yet many clinics and hospitals have to make do with dim, flickering candles or kerosene lamps – if they offer care at all at night.]]> 2017-04-30 18:30:01 UTC https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169072009 amroegypt2000 https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169072460 Positive Effects]]> 2017-04-30 18:36:05 UTC https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169072460 amroegypt2000 https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169072558 To a large extent the scarcity or absence of electricity will makes us more physically active.

The authorities  will have to resolve their conflicts in a hope to overcome the most relevant issue at hand. There is strength in unity and it will be realised at the most pivotal point. A collaboration of minds will become a necessity, thereby fostering conducive relationships for peace and unity. People will be brought together due to the no electricity since there will be more socialising and people will come to truly understand each other and know how others feel and emotions that goes through them.

When people hurt others, they become hated and raced with guilt.
But knowing that pain allows people to be kind.
Pain allows people to grow… and how you grow is up to you.”]]> 2017-05-02 23:21:51 UTC https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169561022 amroegypt2000 https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169562190 Increasing power cuts and shortages of fuel are creating an impending crisis for Gaza’s 14 public hospitals, threatening the closure of essential health services which would leave thousands of people without access to life-saving health care. The health system’s fuel reserves are sufficient for only a few more days. If a solution is not found, Gaza’s 14 public hospitals will be forced to partially or completely close essential services.

Without fuel, 40 surgical operation theatres, 11 obstetric operation theatres, 5 haemodialysis centres and hospital emergency departments serving almost 4,000 patients daily will be forced to stop critical services. The situation will be immediately life-threatening for 113 new-borns currently in neonatal intensive care units, 100 patients in intensive care and 658 patients requiring bi-weekly haemodialysis, including 23 children.

The interaction between people will increase overtime in the 6 month of no electricity causing more understanding  between people. Knowing more people means listening to more stories and exploring more psychologies. It is like seeing the world from multiple pairs of eyes. that might not seem important to you, but knowing how people think helps much beyond the expected spectrum. Increased social interaction helps sufferers to rebuild their self-esteem which in turn enables them to maintain and develop positive relationships and friendships.

The responding between Good versus Bad is the efficiency of the systems without electricity and the response of the affected population. The response can be broken down into productivity, innovatory, and sustainability. Innovatory increases however productivity decreases due to the amount of time it would take for an type of production to take place. ]]> 2017-05-03 11:36:07 UTC https://padlet.com/stlouistyrese5/1dr07nvutmhu/wish/169643630
