GEOTHERMAL ENERGY Geothermal energy is one of the oldest sources of energy. It is simply using and reusing (reusable energy) heat from the inside of the earth. Most of the geothermal energy comes from magma‚ molten or partially molten rock. Which is why most geothermal resources come from regions where there are active volcanoes. Hot springs‚ geysers‚ pools of boiling mud‚ and fumaroles are the most easily exploited sources. The ancient Romans used hot springs to heat baths and homes‚ and

Colegio salvadoreño ingles Environmental Management “Why ecologic energy has to become the one to feed our transportation methods?” By: Douglas Ascencio 10°B Mr. Hunt Monday‚ January 21st‚ 2013. My thesis question is “why ecologic energy has to become the one to feed our transportation methods?” I chose this question because I’ve noticed that in the Salvadorian society the transportation as well as its very varied methods have become a vital part of its development and it is almost

SOLAR ENERGY Our environment is in a fatal state any move could cost us the world. We need to work with the environment and not against it‚ we need to use what it is giving us every day and not every million year‚ once it is gone it is gone. Instead of using fossil fuels and having them burn to waste use solar energy and use what the sun gives us every day. Solar energy is an effective alternative source because there is very little pollution‚ they cut down on fossil fuels and are cost effective

Almost every country stood by and watched as the bombs made by the simple process of fission of two atomic particles produced enough power to destroy

How does my wind generator work? Every wind generator‚ whether they produce enough energy to power a city or to power a small radio‚ works on these same basic principles... 1. The wind blows 2. The generator’s vane (tail) causes it to turn into the wind 3. Blades attached to an alternator/generator experience the force of lift and begin to spin 4. The spinning creates electricity for us to use directly or to charge batteries Sounds pretty simple eh? Well‚ then how the heck do I build one

Thermoregulation is the process the body uses in order to keep the body at a regular temperature‚ which is about 37 degrees Celsius. 9. The hypothalamus contains body temperature sensors. 10. a. Two mechanisms the body uses to cool are dilating blood vessels and skin and making sweat glands produce more cooling sweat. b. Two mechanisms the body uses to heat itself are constricting blood vessels and skin and making muscles shiver to produce heat. 11. a. The stimulus is the raised body heat‚ and the response

the still tiny alternative energy market. In a minimum of fifty years fossil fuels‚ which include petroleum (oil)‚ natural gas‚ and coal‚ will all run out. Alternative energy is a renewable and the most productive type of energy for the USA and the world (United States. Department of Energy). Every person on this planet is provided with a dirty and unforgiving energy source‚ fossil fuels. Fossil fuels destroy and tarnish the once beautiful world. Alternative energy could slowing bring back some
