1 HUMAN IMPACT on the BIOSPHERE Chapter 6-2 Renewable and Non-renewable Resources

2 ________________ RESOURCES can regrow if they are alive OR be replaced by biogeochemical cycles if they are non-living RENEWABLE http://www.inclusive.co.uk/downloads/images/pics2/tree.gif http://www.sfu.ca/aq/archives/Nov2007/features/fish_story.html http://www.navitron.org.uk/wind/600kw.JPG

3 “Renewable” doesn’t always mean REPLACEABLE Ex: An _________tree can be re-grown, but a __________ of trees takes a long time to grow back. RENEWABLE RESOURCES http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/gallery/2002/08/30/deforestedland.jpg individual population

4 “Renewable” depends on context _______________ forests have never been cut. It takes centuries to replace these and species may be lost. http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/gallery/2002/08/30/deforestedland.jpg OLD GROWTH

5 Ex: “OLD GROWTH” forests provide a unique _______ and are home to many species that don’t live in other types of forests RENEWABLE RESOURCES http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_growth_forest habitat

6 Renewable does NOT mean __________________ Ex: FRESH ________is a renewable resource but can be limited by drought or overuse unlimited water NONRENEWABLE RESOURCES http://earth.ooups.com/uk/images/100/tapwater.jpg http://www.wrightwoodcalif.com/watershort/ConserveWater.JPG

7 can NOT BE replaced by natural processes NONRENEWABLE _______________ RESOURCES http://www.greenpeace.org/raw/image_full/international/photosvideos/photos/illegal-deforestation-and-land.jpg http://www.npr.org/news/images/2005/aug/16/pumping_gas200.jpg

8 = ___________________DEVELOPMENT It’s a way of using natural resources without using them up AND without causing harm to the planet SUSTAINABLE One ANSWER to ?

9 A __________________ is anything an organism needs for life RESOURCE REMEMBER NATURAL RESOURCES = LAND AIRFORESTSWATER http://www.lenntech.com/images/discharge.gif http://www.newtonswindow.com/problem-solving.htm http://coweeta.ecology.uga.edu/coweeta_photographs/erosion.htm

10 VOCAB Wearing away of topsoil = SOIL ____________ is caused by plowing land and removing plant roots erosion http://coweeta.ecology.uga.edu/coweeta_photographs/erosion.htm

11 FOREST RESOURCES Loss of forests = ____________ can result in erosion and loss of nutrients preventing regrowth deforestation http://www.greenpeace.org/raw/image_full/international/photosvideos/photos/illegal-deforestation-and-land.jpg

12 Forests have been called the “lungs of the Earth” because they remove ________________ and produce ______________ FOREST RESOURCES carbon dioxide oxygen http://www.ecoworld.com/air/Images/Photosynthesis.jpg

13 ______________ = harmful material that can enter the biosphere through land, air, or water _________ = Mixture of chemicals that appear as a gray-brown haze in the atmosphere AIR RESOURCES Pollutant smog http://www.cyberolimpiadas.com.sv/proyectos2004/gamma/proyecto3/smog.jpg

14 Burning __________ releases pollutants that cause smog and other problems in atmosphere. Toxic chemicals like nitrates, sulfates, and particulates can cause breathing problems like ___________ AIR RESOURCES http://www.cyberolimpiadas.com.sv/proyectos2004/gamma/proyecto3/smog.jpg fossil fuels asthma

15 Smokestack “Scrubbers” control emissions Auto emission standards Clean air regulations Reduce use of fossil fuels SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT http://www.alexvisani.com/darkgallery/smog.jpg

16 Americans use BILLIONS of gallons of fresh water daily for drinking, washing, and watering crops FRESH WATER RESOURCES http://www.thesolutionsite.com/lesson/4601/freshwater.jpg

17 Although water is a renewable resource, the total supply of fresh water is __________. FRESH WATER RESOURCES http://www.mos.org/oceans/graphics/planet/watercycle.jpg limited

18 Wetlands remove _____________ and ________the water passing through. FRESH WATER RESOURCES http://www.epa.gov/bioiweb1/aquatic/importance.html clean pollutants

19 Water conservation Protect wetlands and forests Water treatment plants Clean water regulations SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT hhttp://www.romanviii.co.uk/bp/nhpage.asp?pcat=about_us

20 DON’T FORGET THE WATER WE CAN’T SEE! The PRODUCTION OF: 1 kg wheat costs 1,300 L water 1 kg rice costs 3,400 L water 1 kg eggs costs 3,300 L water 1 kg beef costs 15,000 L water 1 cotton shirt costs 2,500 L water 1000 g of blue jeans costs 10,850 liters water 1 ton passenger car costs 400,000 liters of water Building a house uses about 6 million liters of water

21 WAYS TO CONSERVE WATER http://www.watersavingtips.org/images/saving_1.jpg

22 SOUTH DAKOTA CORE SCIENCE STANDARDS 9-12.N.1.1. Students are able to evaluate a scientific discovery to determine and describe how societal, cultural, and personal beliefs influence scientific investigations and interpretations NATURE OF SCIENCE: Indicator 1: Understand the nature and origin of scientific knowledge Recognize scientific knowledge is not merely a set of static facts but is dynamic and affords the best current explanations. Discuss how progress in science can be affected by social issues.

23 SOUTH DAKOTA CORE SCIENCE STANDARDS 9-12.N.1.2. Students are able to describe the role of observation and evidence in the development and modification of hypotheses, theories, and laws. NATURE OF SCIENCE: Indicator 1: Understand the nature and origin of scientific knowledge Recognize and analyze alternative explanations and models. Evaluate the scientific accuracy of information relevant to a specific issue

24 SOUTH DAKOTA CORE SCIENCE STANDARDS 9-12.L.3.1. Students are able to identify factors that can cause changes in stability of populations, communities, and ecosystems. Predict the results of biotic and abiotic interactions. Examples: Fluctuation in available resources (water, food, shelter) Human activity Response to external stimuli LIFE SCIENCE: Indicator 3: Analyze how organisms are linked to one another and the environment.
