Slide 3 - Slide

Goals of last lessons
  1. You can explain how 5 different types of sustainable energy work.
  2. You can explain the what the energy transition means.
  3. You can explain what the energy transition involves for the Netherlands.

Slide 4 - Slide

C3.2: ENERGY OF THE FUTURE

Slide 5 - Slide

ENERGY TRANSITION
The shift from using fossil fuels to using sustainable sources.

Slide 6 - Slide

Think:
What are the 5 sustainable energy sources and
name a disadvantage.

Slide 7 - Slide

SOLAR ENERGY
Electricity generated sustainably using solar penals.

You can also use the sun to heat water.


Slide 8 - Slide

WIND ENERGY

Electricity generated sustainably using wind turbines.

Slide 9 - Slide

HYDRO-ELECTRICITY
Sustainable energy that is generated using falling water.

Slide 10 - Slide

BIOMASS
Organic materials such as vegetable oils, wood and biodegredable waste (vegetables, fruit and garden waste).

Slide 11 - Slide

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY

Sustainable energy from the natural heat deep inside the Earth.

 "Earth heat"

Slide 12 - Slide

CHECK HOMEWORK

Slide 13 - Slide

Wind, sun & biomass
4 a They are in coastal areas and in the sea, where there is a lot of wind and they cause the least nuisance to people.
 b See W4 on next dia.
 c solar panels, wind turbines and energy conservation (homes facing south)

Slide 14 - Slide

Slide 15 - Slide

USE FIGURE 8 & 10
5 The level of carbon dioxide does not change: CO2 is created when wood is burned. The CO2 is absorbed by trees; the wood from the trees is used to generate energy.

 

6 a Oil palms for biofuels instead of tropical rainforest.
 b Large areas of tropical rainforest were removed for cultivation of oil palms, a loss of nature areas.

TODAY'S GOALS
  1. You know 2 reasons why the sea levels are rising.
  2. You can explain the definition of relative sea-level rise.
  3. You know 3 reasons for subsidence in the Netherlands.

Slide 21 - Slide

You know 2 reasons why the sea levels are rising.
1. Climate change
2. Subsidence
  • See next slide

         "The bottom sinks"

Slide 22 - Slide

You know 3 reasons for subsidence in the Netherlands.
  1. "Seesaw" after the last ice age.
  2. Pumping away rising groundwater.
  3. The extraction of "minerals".

Slide 23 - Slide

Slide 24 - Slide

SUBSIDENCE
during/after the last ice age

Slide 25 - Slide

You can explain the definition of relative sea-level rise.

Slide 26 - Slide

You are able to explain how a polder works.

Read "Below sea level" in your coursebook.
Open page 84-85 in your GeoGuide.
