Geothermal Energy: -Geothermal energy is simply power derived from the Earth's internal heat -Contained in the rock and fluids beneath Earth's crust Three Types of Geothermal Power Plants- -Dry Stream- takes stream out of fractures in the ground and uses it directly to drive turbine -Flash Plants- pull deep, high pressure hot water into cooler, low pressure water. the stream that results from this is used to drive turbine. -Binary Plants- the hot water is passed by a second fluid with

and heat (thermal), it means using the nature heat produced inside the Earth. (Davor Habjanec,2008)The use of geothermal energy occurred more than 10,000 years ago with the settlement of Paleo-Indians in hot springs. The technology of geothermal energy improved each year. In 1904, the first geothermal power plant was built in Larderello, Italy. Although geothermal energy's installation is expensive, it is an efficient and reliable energy resource which does not cause significant pollution, it is renewable

Recycle plastic programs * The plastic pollution Plastic is one of the few new chemical materials which pose environmental problem. Polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene is largely used in the manufacture of plastics. Synthetic polymers are easily molded into complex shapes, have high chemical resistance, and are more or less elastic. Some can be formed into fibers or thin transparent films. These properties have made them popular in many durable or disposable goods and for packaging

these are the significant learnings, which one can take home and apply in India. Introduction The East Asian region including China and India is projected to experience stronger growth in electricity consumption than any other region of the world. Total electricity consumption is projected to grow by more than 3 trillion-kilowatt hours between 1995 and 2015, a growth rate above 5 percent per year, with China alone accounting for more than half the growth. The

Jennifer Bergeron Comp 1 Brienzo 06/05/2013 Shortages in Today’s World The world as of today is limited on its resources. The human race is living well beyond its means. Studies have shown that nearly two thirds of the natural machinery that supports life on Earth is being degraded by human pressure. Our wetlands, costal fisheries, savannahs, and other habitats that recycle air and water are being irretrievably damaged. With over 7 billion people living on the planet, there are many ways
