Each of the lights, car miles, games, and other appliances was converted to a common unit of power consumption called kilowatt-hours. The spreadsheet was used to determine how many kilowatt-hours were used during each day, each week, and each year for each energy consumption activity. The spreadsheet converted their energy consumption to show them the amount of money it costs for each energy consumption activity. In the end, they were shocked to see how much money Jules' energy using habits cost compared to Les' habits. USES OF ENERGY The United States is a highly developed and industrialized society. We use a lot of energy - in our homes, in businesses, inindustry, and for traveling between all these different places. The industrial sector uses almost one-third of the total energy.

Deforestation: Our forests produce fresh oxygen and help in regulating temperature and rainfall. At present forests cover 30% of the land but every year tree cover is lost amounting to the country of Panama due to growing population demand for more food, shelter and cloth. Deforestation simply means clearing of green cover and making that land available for residential, industrial or commercial purpose. FIND OUT 5 WAYS HOW TO STOP DEFORESTATION. 7. Ocean Acidification: It is a direct impact of excessive production of CO2. 25% of CO2 produced by humans. The ocean acidity has increased by the last 250 years but by 2100, it may shoot up by 150%. The main impact is on shellfish and plankton. Acid Rain: Acid rain occurs due to the presence of certain pollutants in the atmosphere

linked to acid air pollution. Some things that you can do to make acid rain less of a problem are: Only run the dishwasher and washing machine with a full load. Turn off the lights in empty rooms or when you will be away from home. Turn off the hot water tank when you will be gone for a long period of time. Don't use your air conditioner or heater as much. Install fluorescent light bulbs instead of incandescent light bulbs. Try to reduce, reuse, and recycle as often as you can. Try not to burn a fire often. When you are going to work, you could walk, ride your bike, or take a bus. Car-pool to a place with someone else. Try to use alternate fuels, like: ethanol, propane, or natural gas. Take the train or a bus for long trips. L imit the amount of long trips you take in your car. M ake sure that your vehicle's air conditioning system isn't leaking. Try not to overflow the gas tank.

I'd like to present the main issues of our planet and today i'll name 5 of them. These are air pollution, water pollution, endangered animals, deforestation and rubbish. Air pollution Firstly, lets talk about air pollution, which endangeres our life in cities and also the forests near by. Cars and factories blow poisoned gas in the air and it mixes with the oxygen, so the air that we breathe, becomes dangerous to our health
motors - an electric motor and a gasoline powered motor. It also has a special system to capture braking energy to store in an onboard battery (recharge). Hybrid technology is most efficient when electric and gas energy are equally utilized. Generally this ideal lies between 30-40 miles per hour. Why no t to purc has e a hybrid? · Even tho hybrids seem to be the solution to "go green"and save the enviroment, its a long way from it. · Hybrids are not zero-emisson vehicles. · High tech parts use various rare alloys and metals. · Batteries use nickel which travels 10000 miles before manufactured into a battery. · High tech parts need to be recycled separetly.(2 motors, alloys, computer parts)

They spend more time at the computers or laptops or iPads etc. than read books or move outside. And another thing is that teachers are less capable in using technological appliances. But the latter mentioned fact is an advantage for us teachers as well. It gives us an opportunity to provide our students to experience success. They can help and assist us if we need some technological help. Another thing is that in schools, in classes generally students are not allowed to

project deadline. From this analysis, it was discovered that one of the reasons why there has been an increase in the design and construction of buildings with highly complicated geometry is the advent of 3D and BIM tools. The main themes that emerged were: • 3D and BIM increase collaboration between different project participants; • A reduction in construction time is evident only when the building models are openly shared; • Intelligent models help to find clashes and reduce re-work; • Models increase accuracy during fabrication and construction; • Shop-drawing review is sped up; • Steel design takes place in a more concurrent fashion; • 3D illustrations help to explain erection sequencing; • Building models provide rigging information for erection crews. The results of this thesis illustrate the benefit that 3D and BIM offer for complex steel construction projects and demonstrate an overall trend in the construction industry. The
Some renewable energy technologies are criticised for being intermittent or unsightly, yet the market is growing for many forms of renewable energy. Climate change concerns coupled with high oil prices, peak oil and increasing government support are driving increasing renewable energy legislation, incentives and commercialization. New government spending, regulation, and policies should help the industry weather the 2009 economic crisis better than many other sectors. Costs Renewable energy systems encompass a broad, diverse array of technologies, and the current status of these can vary considerably. Some technologies are already mature and economically competitive (e.g. geothermal and hydropower), others need additional development to become competitive without subsidies. This can be helped by improvements to sub-components, such as electric generators. The table shows an overview of costs of various renewable energy technologies

production was stopped in 1977. . Emission sources Dioxins are mainly produced as unwanted byproducts of industrial processes and there is no intentional production or use. They can also to a small extent be formed naturally in forest fires or volcanic activity. Examples of activities resulting in dioxin emissions are waste incineration, burning fuels (wood, coal or oil), chlorine bleaching of pulp and paper and chlorinated pesticides manufacturing. Burning of many materials containing chlorine, such as plastics and wood treated with pentachlorophenol also produce dioxins. According to a study in the context of the Stockholm Convention, the main sources for emissions of dioxins to air in EU25 are Residential combustion (~ 30%) Open burning of waste (backyard burning) (~15%) Wood preservation (~15%) Iron and steel industry (~ 8%)
Another way how to help the enviroment would be saving water. Turn off the water, when you’re not using it. People often leave water running, when they’re brushing teeth- turn if off between rinses! If you find a leak somewhere, fix it and in the meantime put a bowl orsm under the drip. Also you should conserve water. Take shorter showers, run your dishwasher only when it’s completely full and if possible reuse water. Also you can help the enviroment by recycling and conserving. Recycle all you can. There’s usually one trash can for bags, one for glass, one for cans, one for boxes, one for plastic and one for paper. Use them correctly. Anyway you should avoid using plastic- it never breaks down, and has led to the poisoning and death of numerous sea creatures. Don’t use plastic bags, use reusable fabric bags instead. Don’t waste food, use up your leftovers. Also if you have usable clothes or household items that you don’t need
You may sprain your ankle, break your leg, cut your finger of graze your knee. You may also have a nosebleed or a heart attack Quite a number of diseases are infectious. We can get these diseases from people already ill with the disease or infected food or animals. Most common infectious diseases are such children's diseases as measles, mumps, scarlet fever and chicken pox. Some diseases have become more rare because children and grown-ups can be vaccinated against them for example polio, diphtheria, smallpox. Tuberculosis (TB) was almost stamped out, but now it is returning, having become resistant to many medicines that were used to cure it years ago. The most infectious disease in the Middle Ages was plague, now AIDS has replaced it. It is a serious problem and kills millions of people every year. This is a disease that cannot be cured yet but scientists and doctors are working on this problem. Not all the diseases are infectious
