Summarizing what I read‚ one viewpoint says that it is better for our environment‚ and green‚ and clean to use solar powered‚ wind powered‚ and water powered energy sources instead of fossil fuels such as coal‚ oil and natural gas. The other viewpoint states that it would take up too much land space to use these sources and that they are not “green‚” and it would be better to use nuclear power as an energy source because it does not take up as much land

Jessica Brown Mr. Mackay Biology Period: 1 15 January 2014 How Dangerous Is the Coal-Washing Chemical Spilled in West Virginia? The chemical that spilled into the waters in West Virginia is called methyl cyclohexane methanol or MCHM for short. The chemical is used to clean coal and helps separate the burnable fossil fuel from the unburnable rock and dirt and other contaminations. Because of the spill‚ 300‚000 people can’t drink‚ cook‚ shower‚ or do anything involving water and it touching

Chlorophyll clip_image002Outline the role of photosynthesis in transforming light energy to chemical energy (including raw materials needed for this process) Photosynthesis occurs in all green plants and is the beginning of nearly all food chains therefore a source of life to all living organisms. It is the process where plants transform light energy from the sun into chemical energy. By using light energy trapped by chlorophyll (light absorbing pigment)‚ plants combine carbon dioxide and

The Burning of Fossil Fuels GS104-Intro to Environmental Science Steven Wimberly February 05‚ 2013 Fossil fuels are a very important part of our society today. Natural gas‚ Coal‚ and oil are the world’s primary and most important source of energy. “90% of the energy we use in this country [USA] comes from fossil fuels.” (http://www.ucsusa.org) Unfortunately‚ there are costs of using these fossil fuels to run our society. Some costs are obvious such as the cost of labor‚ equipment and supplies

We aim to portray Coal Seam Gas in a negative light‚ and through our strategies‚ tactics and goals‚ hopefully inform‚ educate and persuade our target audience to favor the opinions of the Lock The Gates Alliance. Further‚ we hope to generate awareness by advertising and promoting anti Coal Seam Gas. With a capped budget of $135‚ 000 we hope to achieve our goals.

push the agenda to free America from dependency on foreign oil. Coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas are called fossil fuels because they were formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived hundreds of millions of years ago‚ before the age of dinosaurs. When these ancient life forms died‚ they accumulated and were buried by deeper and deeper layers of sediment. The actual transformation process of these prehistoric creatures into coal‚ oil‚ and natural gas is not known. But scientists do know that

In contrast‚ resources such as timber (when harvested sustainably) or metals (which can be recycled) are considered renewable resources Fossil fuel [pic] [pic] A temporary oil drilling rig in Western Australia Further information: Oil depletion Natural resources such as coal‚ petroleum‚ oil and natural gas take thousands of years to form naturally and

This resonates with the current issue of Coal Seam Gas mining and its wealthy supporters‚ while the dangers to the environment of such exploration and exploitation is apparent. My first image is of a street protest with the banner ‘We can’t drink money’ and refers to the poetic line‚ ‘so much so that I am now nothing but bones’. The reason I have chosen this image is to show that coal seam gas production may pollute the water that we drink. The man in the poem
