Energy conservation refers to reducing energy consumption through using less of an energy service. Energy conservation differs from efficient energy use‚ which refers to using less energy for a constant service.[1] For example‚ driving less is an example of energy conservation. Driving the same amount with a higher mileage vehicle is an example of energy efficiency. Energy conservation and efficiency are both energy reduction techniques. Even though energy conservation reduces energy services

Renewable Energy INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND Renewable energy is a new concept to some people but in actuality it has been around and talked about for many years. What it is is energy that comes from a source that is not depleted when used‚ and can be replenished. Some of these sources are wind‚ rain and sunlight. Renewable energy can replace the common standard fuels humans use in the generation of electricity‚ hot water and heating‚ and motor fuels (“How Solar Energy Works

Atomic energy is energy produced by atoms. The term originated in 1903 when Ernest Rutherford began to speak of the possibility ofatomic energy.[1] The term was popularized by H. G. Wells in the phrase‚ "splitting the atom"‚ devised at a time prior to the discovery of the nucleus. Atomic energy also may refer to: * Nuclear binding energy‚ the energy required to split a nucleus of an atom * Nuclear potential energy‚ the potential energy of the particles inside an atomic nucleus * Nuclear

A. Cardiovascular Fitness At the moment‚ my cardiovascular fitness is not very efficient‚ if I do not improve my cardiovascular fitness‚ it will increase my likelihood of heart disease and respiratory problems down the road. By increasing my cardiovascular endurance level‚ it can help my cardiovascular and respiratory systems to function properly while under the stress of challenging exercise sessions. Like the book mentions‚ improving cardiovascular endurance will not only help boost oxygen to

Alternate Energy What would it be like to live in the dark? Finding new forms of alternative energy has been a major concern throughout the world for the past several years. Currently‚ our main sources of energy are coal for electricity‚ and oil for transportation. Alternative energy‚ also known as renewable energy‚ is defined as energy derived from sources that do not use up natural resources or harm the environment. At the rate we are using these nonrenewable resources oil is scheduled to run

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
