Then, the plants died and also animals. Over three million years ago sediments and animals, plants were buried. Finally, over that three million years the plant turned into coal!  
- Fossil Fuels can't be replaced quickly in our lifetime.
- Natural gas = cooking = home heating
- Fuels are materials that are burned to produce heat energy.

At most wind farms the wind is only right for producing electricity.]]> 2018-01-24 14:39:57 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224232316 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224233008 -Hydro means water and Hydroelectricity is electricity made by water.

-The first hydroelectric power plant was opened in 1882.

-Water pushes pushes against blades of a turbine to spin a generator that creates electricity.

-Dams can be built to capture the energy from the river.

-The water used is renewable resource.

-some Hydroelectric facilitys can change he temperature and the rivers flow.

-Hydroelectricity is good because it reduces pollution and the use of chemicals or toxic waste.

-Hydroelectricity plants harm aquatic  wildlife or animals.

-When water is done being used,it returns to rivers and starts their part in the water cycle.

Some sources include corncobs,manure,and household garbage.These resources are limitless and environmentally friendly.Like fossil fuels  biofuels  release  carbon  dioxide.Biofuel looks like green gas and can be use the same way.

Geo means Earth thermal means Heat.
Geothermal energy is reliable and can be used directly as it is taken from the Earth.Geothermal energy is a renewable energy resource because it is constantly produced inside Earth.]]> 2018-01-24 14:43:47 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224234802 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224235903 Wind energy is renewable energy because wind is blowing in many places all over the earth.]]> 2018-01-24 14:45:27 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224235903 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224236559 Solar energy is radiant light and heat from the Sun that is harnnessed using a range  of ever- evolving technologies  such as solar heating . Solar panels can produce electricity or heat water.Solar energy produces no air pollution. Solar energy is renewable energy because the Sun's energy is endless. The disadvantage is that the solar panels that capture sunlight and turn it into energy are expensive to produce and not always reliable .in addition solar energy can be collected only during the daytime .]]> 2018-01-24 14:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224236559 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224240138 Our main three fossil fuels are oil,coal,Natural gas so the main thing oil is used for gasoline diesel fuel jet fuel home heating oil and propane]]> 2018-01-24 14:52:18 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224240138 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224240864 Vegetable Oil, Animal Fats, And Corn Fuel Are Examples Of Biofuels]]> 2018-01-24 14:53:20 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224240864 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224242216 2018-01-24 14:55:30 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224242216 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224242285 2018-01-24 14:55:35 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224242285 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224242613 2018-01-24 14:56:10 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224242613 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224243238 2018-01-24 14:57:10 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224243238 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224243435 2018-01-24 14:57:18 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224243435 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224247236 2018-01-24 15:03:27 UTC https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224247236 https://padlet.com/wdedrick/energy/wish/224250828
