2 Natural Resources

3 Warm Up 1. What is energy? 2. Make a list of all the things today that you used that require energy. 3. Put the following types of energy into either non-renewable or renewable.  Biomass, petroleum (oil), natural gas, wind, solar, nuclear, hydroelectric, coal, geothermal

4 Renewable vs. Nonrenewable  Renewable  Definition  Examples  Nonrenewable  Definition  Examples

5 Fossil Fuels  Definition  Why are the good energy sources?  Made of hydrocarbons  Burn hot  Creates lots of energy  Release pollution  Types  Petroleum  Coal  Natural Gas

6 Energy Use in the U.S.  Where/How is it used?  Where does the energy come from?

7 Daily Review #1 4. Define fossil fuel, nonrenewable and renewable. 5. Give an example of each of the above. 6. How would your life be different if we ran out of fossil fuels tomorrow? End

8 Coal  Fossil fuel  Former bog/swamp  Decaying plant/ animal material  Acidic  Low oxygen  Pressure and time  Contains sulfur  Acid rain  Produces a lot of CO 2

9 Coal – Where and How?  Mining  Deep  Strip  Refinement  Transportation  Mostly U.S.  Used for  Electricity

10 Coal Advantages (Pros) Disadvantages (Cons)  EES – 2 EES – 2  EES – 3 EES – 3  EES – 4 EES – 4  EES – 5 EES – 5  EES – 8 EES – 8

11 Daily Review #2 7. Describe how coal is formed. 8. In your opinion, what is the most important advantage of coal and why? 9. In your opinion, what is the most important disadvantage of coal and why? End

12 Petroleum  Fossil Fuel  Marine organisms  Brown/black thick liquid  Extraction  Drilling  Fracking  Refined – distillation  Heated to a gas  Cooled to various liquids or gasses  Make many different things

13 Petroleum – Where?

14 Fracking  Use existing well  Drills horizontally  Pumps in  Water  Sand  Chemicals  High pressure  Breaks open rocks  Releases trapped oil and gas  Sand holds open cracks  Chemicals aids process  Products pumped out

15 Fracking – Where?

16 Petroleum Advantages (Pros) Disadvantages (Cons)  EES – 2 EES – 2  EES – 3 EES – 3  EES – 4 EES – 4  EES – 5 EES – 5  EES – 8 EES – 8 Petroleum/Natural gas videovideo

17 Natural Gas – What?  Colorless, odorless gas  Mostly methane  Fossil Fuel  Usually found with other types  Marine organisms - at a higher temp  Bacteria during decay process  Trapped by nonporous rocks  Can also be trapped in small pores of rocks

18 Natural Gas – Where and How?  U.S. and Canada  Extraction  Drilling  Fracking  Small amount of refining  Add a smell  Transportation  Pipelines  Used for  Heating  Cooking  Some vehicles

19 Natural Gas Advantages (Pros) Disadvantages (Cons)  EES – 2 EES – 2  EES – 3 EES – 3  EES – 4 EES – 4  EES – 5 EES – 5  EES – 8 EES – 8

20 Daily Review #3 10. How are petroleum, natural gas and coal all similar? 11. How are petroleum, natural gas and coal different from one another? 12. Describe the process of fracking. 13. In your opinion, what is the most important advantage of petroleum and why? 14. In your opinion, what is the most important disadvantage of natural gas and why? End
