RI.4.7: What percentage of renewable resources is wood?

• 37%
• 25%
• 8%
• 53%

RI.4.2: Identify the main idea:
Renewable energy plays an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. When renewable energy sources are used, the demand for fossil fuels is reduced. Unlike fossil fuels, non-biomass renewable sources of energy (hydropower, geothermal, wind, and solar) do not directly emit greenhouse gases.

• Fossil fuels are bad
• Greenhouse gas emissions are going up
• Renewable resources are imporant
• Renewable resources reduce greenhouse gas
