Impact (s) 8 Conclusion 9 References 10 INTRODUCTION Biomass is a source of renewable energy. Biomass is a fancy name for material from plants and animals. Some kinds of biomass can be burned to produce energy. One common example is wood. Biomass contains stored energy. That’s because plants absorb energy from the sun through the process of photosynthesis. When biomass is burned‚ this stored energy is released as heat. Burning biomass releases carbon dioxide. However‚ plants also take carbon

The capacity to cause change‚ or to move matter in a direction it would not move if left alone. A child pushing a ball‚ the energy is transferred from the muscle of the child to the ball forcing the ball to move. What is kinetic energy?

Nowadays the amount of energy we use varies inversely to the environmental impact on our planet. And the consequence of overusing the energy may be not so positive. We have to do the actions towards to create more sustainable environment. In order to help our planet to survive the actions should be done in individual‚ local‚ national‚ and international levels. First of all‚ the sustainable development of our earth is started from the least. Consequently every human in this world should ask himself

and businesses‚ geothermal power plants use superheated fluids from the earth’s geothermal energy to generate electricity. When magma heats up the water from underground‚ it creates superheated fluids. When these super-heated fluids reach the surface they will be turned into steam. This steam will then power a turbine‚ which will in turn power a conductor. The conductor will then produce electrical energy. ¬¬¬¬¬¬To create enough steam to power the steam turbines‚ the superheated fluid must
