Bilasano Jessa C. Buendia Researchers Mr. Ronaldo C. Reyes Adviser Tabaco National High School Tabaco City INTRODUCTION We rely on coal, oil and gas (the fossil fuels) for over 80% of our current energy needs and by 2030, global energy consumption is projected to grow by 36% and demand for liquid transport fuels will have risen by some 16 million barrels more a day. With the world’s population projected to reach 8.3 billion by then, an additional 1.3 billion people will need energy. (BP Outlook

to improve energy efficiency in the Australian economy? How will this affect the building industry? In 2009, retail buildings accounted for the largest share of energy consumption in commercial buildings with office buildings not far behind. The Council of Australian Governments (COAG) states that the total energy consumption for all commercial buildings is expected to rise by 24% over the period 2009 to 2020. The COAG implemented a method to improve energy efficiency was by adopting the National

Mineral and Power Resources Introduction to Mineral Minerals are composed of inorganic particles. Minerals are found in the earth or are naturally occurring substances. They are found in rocks, and water. • Minerals are chemical substances. Some minerals like gold or silver are made of only one element. Other minerals, like quartz and calcite, are combinations of two or more elements. • Minerals always have the same chemical makeup. For example, quartz will always consist of one part silicon

1. Natural gas should be the product that BP should invest in. It is no longer a new source of energy as its publicity has been increasing as a possible best alternative to oil which still is by far a dominating resource. Now, there is no doubt that the amount of oil available is decreasing and in fact using oil as heavily as it has been used is not welcomed, especially by individuals or groups who advocate countless number of anti-CO2 emission campaign. Natural gas also emits CO2 just like

are focusing on today is called acid rain. Acid rain is a devastating effect of energy consumption. The only way to reduce it is to use less natural resources, or energy conservation. Energy consumption and air pollution has become a hot topic recently and is so linked to each other that you cannot have one without the other. One of the worst places for acid rain is China. This is due to their massive consumption of energy sources. The nonrenewable resource they mostly use is coal. Their high usage

Assignment 1 Energy can be converted from one form into another in three basic ways know as the action of force. The first one is gravitational forces which is when gravity accelerates a falling object, its converts its potential energy to kinetic energy. Likewise, when an object is lifted the gravitational field stores the energy exerted by the lifter as potential energy in the earth-object system. The second one is electric and magnetic force fields which is charged particles, upon which electrical

Who are the Politicians Really There For, The Polluters or the People? By Amaree Mobley – December 4, 2011 It’s hard to believe that the corporations who bear the most responsibility for contributing to climate change emanations, and then profiting from those activities are campaigning to increase their access to international negotiations like the upcoming COP17 meeting in Durban. These carbon-intensive industries are working to defeat progressive legislation on climate change and energy around

Benefits of using solar power over fossil fuels in the Philippines It is general knowledge how we use fossil fuels as our major source of energy. We produce from it gasoline and oils for daily use. Fossil fuels though have several environmental degrading effects which catalyzed research to find alternatives for it. During President Ferdinand Marcos’ reign, the first nuclear power plant in the Philippines was built as an alternative energy source but due to controversy, financial and resource

carbon dioxide emissions to prevent the greenhouse effect. He states that our society has to think about the next generation, “the next geneartion may live on a planet that has no icecaps in the summer months”, if we don’t lower our carbon dioxide consumption and temperature keeps increasing. This source is not useful for writing a research paper because the article is based on the opinion of the author and quotations of politicans instead of credible research.
