Unit 3 Discussion Board Sample Table for Monitoring Energy Usage When doing your 3-day review of your energy usage‚ remember that you can use 3 days from the past week‚ rather than tracking the upcoming 3 days. Most people use energy in the form of electricity in their homes and gasoline for transportation‚ but you might have a wood-burning fireplace or use natural gas or liquid propane in your home as well. Below is a sample table that you can use for this Discussion Board. Replace the sample information

Nuclear Waste by Richard A. Muller Nuclear waste is a radioactive waste that is dangerous‚ and a fair percentage of people would agree on this topic. However‚ is it really dangerous or is it just harmful to an extent? In society‚ many debates are held over trying to prove to the world that this substance is harmful. In the essay‚ “Nuclear Waste‚” Muller states clearly that he sides with the anti-nuke of the debate and how he pinpoints the facts of nuclear waste with great persuasion. Yet‚ it is

Nuclear energy is possibly the best form of electricity generation and has many benefits over other forms of power generation. Nuclear power generation has been has been a controversial topic primarily because of the lack of public knowledge on the topic. Many people do not realize that it is a green from of power generation because it does not produce greenhouse gasses and they also don’t realize the massive energy potential of Nuclear power. Nuclear power is capable of providing more power per

Early in human history‚ people used energy for heating‚ lighting‚ and cooking. As humans began to farm larger areas of land‚ their energy demands changed. Domesticated animals were used for energy sources to pull plows. When the Industrial Revolution occurred‚ people’s energy demands further changed to meet the needs of industry. Work that was done by people and animals were then transferred over to machines. These machines required more natural resources such as iron and coal to produce large amounts

Future energy Have you ever thought about the energy providing you electricity for your daily life that nuclear power could take you off from this world (it is not clear what you mean here)? What was your feeling when you watching news about the Fukushima nuclear crisis? What do you think when you see how victims of Chernobyl disaster live today? Good start – the questions are a very good way to get your reader’s attention.) All of those issues are just because of one reason – the safety problem

spring of 1989‚ two scientists by the name of Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann announced that they had found a way to create nuclear fusion in a relatively simple and cheap way. Superhot fusion is the process in which deuterium‚ a heavier form of hydrogen‚ is held within a magnetic field and heated to tens of millions of degrees. The nuclei of the atoms fuse‚ and heat energy is released. This kind of fusion happens in our solar system’s sun. This type of fusion is known to occur‚ but recreating it

WE SHOULD NOT USE TORTURE ON SUSPECTED TERRORISTS Torture‚ as a simple definition‚ is the action or practice of inflicting severe pain on someone as punishment or in order to force them to do or say something. When we see it done on our TV screens we think it’s revolting; we find it hard to watch‚ even though it’s faked and censored in comparison to actual methods used. This practice is usually done using covert methods‚ and is ineffective. It’s unethical and damaging‚ especially when it is practiced
