Renewable and Non-Renewable Energy
Renewable Energy
. Renewable means that it can be used over and over again.
. Renewable energy won't run out as long as the sun still shines.
. Wind turbines can generate electricity.
. Solar panels can produce electricity.
. Plants and trees will always grow and so you can chop them down
burn them and then grow another in order to have energy.
Non-Renewable Energy
. Non-renewable means supplies will run out eventually like oil,
coal, gas ,nuclear power and biofuel.
. Fossil fuels took millions of years to develop but will only take a
minute to burn.
. Non-renewable enwergies will eventually run out.
. If we run out of oil we won't be able to run our cars!
. Without oil we won't be able to make plastic again.
. We wont be able to heat our homes at night
. Therefore it is very important to keep producing renewable energie!
