$100-Renew & Nonrenew What are fossil fuels and why should we conserve them?

$100-Renew & Nonrenew Fossil fuels come from dead plants and animals. Oil, natural gas, coal They re nonrenewable it will take a long time to replace (millions of years) so we need to conserve (save) them! Home

$200-Renew & Nonrenew Geothermal comes from where & how can we turn it into electricity?

$200-Renew & Nonrenew From heat DEEP in the earth. Geo = Earth, thermal = heat. Scientists change water into steam by using Earth s heat. The steam turns a turbine which is hooked up to a generator so we can change it into electricity. Renewable!! Home

$300-Renew & Nonrenew How can we use wind to make electricity?

$300-Tools/Processes Wind can power turbines. Turbines can change mechanical energy into electricity with the use of generators. Renewable! Home

$400-Renew or Nonrenew What is hydroelectric energy?
