3 What is 70%?

4 Three green house gases that contribute to global warming.

5 What is CO 2, N 2 O, CH 4, water vapor, CFC’s?

6 Our current concentration of CO 2 in the atmosphere.

7 What is 392 ppm?

8 A mass of warm water in the Pacific that moves to the California coast around Christmas time.

9 What is El Nino?

10 Presently, the main cause of sea level rise.

11 What is thermal expansion?

12 The National Petroleum Reserve is located in this state.

13 What is Alaska?

14 Fossil fuels are produced only when organic material is decomposed in this type of non oxygenated environment.

15 What is anaerobic?

16 A fossil fuel that was formed when peat decomposes under heat and pressure.

17 What is coal?

18 This type of coal production.

19 What is strip mining?

20 The process of splitting uranium to release energy.

21 What is nuclear fission? Nucleus of uranium Neutron Energy Fission fragment Free neutrons Proton

22 Iceland's two main renewable sources of fuel.

23 What hydroelectric and geothermal?

24 Energy derived from recent plant and animal matter.

25 What is biomass energy (biopower or biofuels)? sugar cane

26 The most abundant renewable energy resource in Hawaii.

27 What is Waste to Energy (garbage) (399 gw)? Others: Wind (250 gw) Geothermal (168 gw) Solar (130 gw) Hydroelectric (70 gw) Biofuels (4.9 gw) Ocean (waves, tides)

28 A process of pumping cold water to the surface for energy or to cool buildings.

29 What is Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC)?

30 The most abundant element in the universe that can be used to make energy.

31 What is Hydrogen (H)?

32 Non-liquid waste that comes from homes, institutions and small businesses.

33 What is Municipal Solid Waste?

34 Landfill gas is produced by this.

35 What is anaerobic bacteria?

36 A method for long- term disposal of hazardous waste.

37 What is deep-well injection?

38 Residents were evacuated from this NY neighborhood in 1978 when it was discovered that toxic chemical were buried there.

39 What is the Love Canal (Niagara Falls, NY)?

40 Lead, chromium, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium found in e- waste are types of these.

41 What are heavy metals?

42 The spread of low- density urban or suburban development outward from an urban center.

43 What is sprawl?

44 A form of transportation that uses less energy per passenger mile.

45 What are trains, in particular, light rail?

46 Businesses arrayed in a long strip along a roadway.

47 What is uncentered commercial strip development?

48 Two main components of sprawl.

49 What is human population growth (less jobs in rural farming areas thus people move to the city for jobs), and per capital land consumption (people desire more space)?

50 A deep underground facility in Yucca Mountain, NV will begin receiving this type of waste by 2017.

51 What is nuclear/radioactive waste?
