What are the top 3 oil producers in the world? What would be the impact on these countries when the

oil runs out? What might they need to start to do to prepare for this

happening in the future?

NONRENEWABLE AND

RENEWABLERESOURCES

HMMMM....What do you

think nonrenewable resources are?

Break it down...

Nonrenewable?

Resource?

NONRENEWABLE RESOURCES

A nonrenewable resource is a natural resource that cannot be re-made or re-grown at a scale comparable to its consumption.

NUCLEAR ENERGYNuclear fission uses

uranium to create energy.

Nuclear energy is a nonrenewable resource

because once the uranium is used, its gone

COAL, PETROLEUM, AND GAS

Coal, petroleum, and natural gas are considered nonrenewable

because they can not be replenished in a short period of

time. These are called fossil fuels.

HOW IS COAL MADE ???

HOW ARE OIL AND GAS MADE ???

WHAT WAS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COAL AND OIL/GAS?

RENEWABLE RESOURCES

Renewable resources are natural resources that can be replenished in a short period of time.

● Solar ● Geothermal● Wind ● Biomass● Water

SOLAR

Energy from the sun.

Why is energy from the sun renewable?

GEOTHERMAL

Energy from Earth’s heat.

Why is energy from the heat of the Earth

renewable?

WIND Energy from the wind.

Why is energy from

the wind renewable?

BIOMASSEnergy from

burning organic or

living matter.

Why is energy from biomass renewable?

WATER or HYDROELECTRIC

Energy from the flow of

water.

Why is energy of flowing

water renewable?

SUMMARY

What are the differences

between nonrenewable and renewable

resources?

Advantages to Using Fossil Fuels• Cheap• Easy transportation of oil and coal

Disadvantages of Using Fossil Fuels• Pollution• Acid rain• Oil spills• Danger in mining• Dependence

Advantages to Using Nuclear Power• Cheap• No smoke or carbon dioxide• Small amounts of waste.• Reliable

Disadvantages of Nuclear Power

• Very, very dangerous.

• It must be sealed up and buried for many years for the radioactivity to die away.

Advantages of Hydroelectricity

•Once the dam is built, the energy is virtually free. •No waste or pollution•Much more reliable than wind and solar power.

Disadvantages to Hydro-electricity

•Expensive to build•Impact on wildlife•Impact on residents

Advantages to Geothermal Power

• No pollution• Little environmental impact• No fuel is needed.

Disadvantages to Geothermal Power

• Not many places locations to build• Sometimes a geothermal site may "run out of

steam", perhaps for decades. • Hazardous gases and minerals may come up from

underground

Advantages to solar power• Needs no fuel and produces no waste or

pollution.• Can be used where there is no easy way

to get electricity to a remote place.

Disadvantages to Solar Power

•Very expensive •Unreliable unless you're in a very sunny climate.

Advantages to Wind power

• Needs no fuel and produces no waste or pollution.

• A good method of supplying energy to remote areas.

Disadvantages of Wind Power

• Not reliable• Can kill birds• Noisy• Suitable areas for wind farms are often near the coast, where land is expensive.
