Also you can use solar power instead of electricity. I have seen it on houses being used instead of electricity. It means instead of using energy and not being able to use it again solar powered things can use it more than once as long as they have the sun so they can work.]]> 2017-03-14 23:36:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160129204 jberry3 https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160129772 I thing this story will be about solar power and what uses it]]> 2017-03-14 23:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160129772 jberry3 https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160130071 2017-03-14 23:46:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160130071 jberry3 https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160130277 2017-03-14 23:48:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160130277 jberry3 https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160135037 Done]]> 2017-03-15 00:41:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160135037 jberry3 https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160135790 This article is taking placing in Tokelau which is 3 very small islands completely run by solar energy.]]> 2017-03-15 00:49:06 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160135790 jberry3 https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160157450 Why and how has Tokelau changed from fossil fuels to renewable energy?

What evidence did they use to make this decision?

And how did they decide what type of renewable energy to use]]> 2017-03-15 04:55:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160157450 jberry3 https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160158551 Fossil fuels is just fuel created by fossils and the dirt and all of that force has turned the bones into fuel which we use in our cars.

They didn't use tidal because it was two expensive for such a small scale. They didn't use Hydroelectric because there was no rivers or lakes on Tokelau. They didn't do geothermal because they had no underground rivers or streams. Biomass they used as there back up because they could use coconut oil. They went with solar because it was cheap and it was very effective seeing they get lots of sun.

How they have changed is they stopped because it cost two much to ship the fossil fuels in and so they decided to change.

It was to expensive to keep shipping the fossil fuels in. Also a lot of the reusable electricity is to expensive or not able to be operated on their island]]> 2017-03-16 06:49:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jberry3/JoshBerry/wish/160431780
