Resources that
nature CAN
replace
For Example: Solve this Riddle
IT lies all around uswe don’t give IT much thought
IT puts food on the tablewhat IT gives can’t be bought
Answer is… SOIL!How is soil made?
• tree dies & decays• bacteria breaks down wood • becomes nutrients..SOIL!
SOIL is a Renewable Resource
That means nature can replace it!
Forests are also a Renewable Resource
Why are FORESTS aRenewable Resource?
Because we can plant MORE!
We use TREES for MANY things…
OXYGEN!Cooking oil
medicineLumber for buildings &
furniture baskets
matsHiking & camping
Animal’s shelter
Deforestation
Happens when forest are not replaced as fast as they are cut
down
Reforestation
Planting new trees
Renewable Energy
ResourcesEnergy resources that
CAN BE REPLACED!
Hydroelectric Power• Production of
electricity by water power
• Dams harness energy of falling water from rivers to run generators that produce electricity
Wind Power• Creates electricity by
turning a system of fan blades called a turbine
• “wind farms” are being built in windy places
Solar Power• Energy from the Heat & light from the sun• Heats water or homes• Special solar panels absorb solar energy to
make electricity
“Mang Demi Solar”from the
PhilippinesInvented solar powered light bottles to
be used in homes
Renewable?
Nonrenewable?
Resources that
nature CAN
replace
Resources that
CANNOT be replaced
Nonrenewable Energy
ResourcesThese cannot be replaced! Once we use them they are
GONE forever!
Most of the energy we use come from
3 fossil fuelsFossil fuels are – formed from remains of ancient
plants and animals –decayed over a period of time–Pressure & heat change materials
into solids, liquids, gas
Most of the energy we use come from
3 fossil fuels
coal petroleum Naturalgas
Minerals are a Nonrenewable
Resource• Solid substances that come from the ground• i.e. metals, rocks, salt• Look around you..they are EVERYWHERE!
Windows made from quartz, a mineral
found in sand
Outside walls made out of granite,
limestone other rocks
Desks made out of steel
Minerals in ALL these things!
