Energy Resources

What is a renewable energy resource?

• Solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass

• Plastic waste

• Coal, oil, natural gas

• Nuclear energy

Name one advantage of using renewable energy resources.

• High pollution

• Limited availability

• Environmentally friendly

• Cost-effective

What is a non-renewable energy resource?

• Wind energy

• Hydropower

• Solar power

• Fossil fuels

List one disadvantage of using non-renewable energy resources.

• Infinite availability

• Eco-friendly

• Low cost

• Finite availability

Give an example of a renewable energy resource.

• Wind power

• Geothermal energy

• Coal power

• Solar power

Mention one environmental benefit of renewable energy resources.

• Increases air pollution

• Leads to deforestation

• Contributes to global warming

• Reduces greenhouse gas emissions

Provide a drawback of non-renewable energy resources.

• Lower cost

• Increased efficiency

• Depletion of resources

• Reduced pollution

How can renewable energy resources help in reducing greenhouse gas emissions?

• Renewable energy resources have no impact on greenhouse gas emissions

• Renewable energy resources increase greenhouse gas emissions

• Renewable energy resources are more harmful to the environment than fossil fuels

• Renewable energy resources do not produce greenhouse gas emissions during electricity generation, unlike fossil fuels. By increasing their use, we can reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions.

Explain why non-renewable energy resources are considered finite.

• Non-renewable energy resources are finite due to their formation process and inability to be replenished within a short timeframe.

• Non-renewable energy resources are finite due to their ability to reproduce

• Non-renewable energy resources are finite because they are made of magic

• Non-renewable energy resources are finite because they are constantly being replenished

Discuss the impact of renewable energy resources on energy security.

• Renewable energy resources have no impact on energy security

• Renewable energy resources increase dependence on fossil fuels

• Renewable energy resources are less reliable than fossil fuels

• Renewable energy resources improve energy security by diversifying the energy mix and reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
