I learned that oil, natural gas, propane, and coal are fossil fuels and are non-renewable resources.  Non-renewable resources are resources that cannot be renewed. Once they are all used up, they are gone forever.

I also learned that there is a certain brand of appliances called ENERGY STAR sells appliances that don't  waste energy.  They sell refrigerators, hot water tanks and more!]]> 2017-05-18 20:20:12 UTC https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172682602 https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172682603 I learned that star energy star items are better than normal appliances and 6% of electricity is made up by water and propane and coal makes fuel and electricity and that i should use more star appliances.]]> 2017-05-18 20:20:13 UTC https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172682603 https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172682611 I learned that 40 percent of coal is used a day  
I learned that so much energy is used a day. 
I learned that air goes through power lines

I learned that saving energy is very important! Oil, natural gas, coil and propane are non-renewable resources. Non-renewable resources are resources that can not be replaced. THE ENERGY STAR
items that have the energy star are better appliances too buy for your house because they save much more energy than appliances that do not show the energy star.]]> 2017-05-18 20:44:45 UTC https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172685547 https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172686069 I learned that energy is important and that we need to save it a conserve it. We all use energy in our everyday lives.]]> 2017-05-18 20:48:51 UTC https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172686069 https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172686133 Today, in the AT-CO van, I learned that some places in your home will let in cold air, and those same places will also let out heated air. Oil, coal, propane, and natural gas are all non-renewable resources or fossil fuels. Wind, water, biomass are all renewable resources. A certain kind of brand called ENERGY STAR sells appliances that don´t waste or use a lot of energy.
There are natural ways to save your energy like:
-use windows instead of lights 
-take shorter showers to save hot water
-take out your chargers or plugs when not charging.

I got all the different ways that I can save energy! Like turning off the lights when I can just open a window and use natural light, or taking shorter showers, things like that! It was really fun, but now i know that it is really important to save energy!]]> 2017-05-18 20:49:56 UTC https://padlet.com/rcrothers1/j6oz7ofab11t/wish/172686206
