Title: All Roads Lead to Fossil Fuels
1All Roads Lead to Fossil Fuels
These are the steps by which electricity is
generated from fossil fuels
Electricity powers your house
- Heat is released from fuel and boils the water to
make steam. - The steam turns the turbine.
- The turbine turns a generator and electricity is
produced. - The electricity goes to the transformers to
produce voltage.
2How does getting our food have to do with fossil
fuels?
To feed an average family of four uses up 930
gallons of gasoline a year -- just shy of the
1,070 gallons that same family would use up each
year to power their cars. -2008
3Renewable energy sources
Our renewable energy resources will never run
out. And they typically generate far less
pollution than fossil fuels. Renewable energy
resources include wind energy water energy,
such as wave machines, tidal barrages and
hydroelectric power geothermal
energy solar energy biomass energy
