before one touches down can save the lives of many people. Looking into history, past tragic events can help future ones to be less tragic. The scale rating these tornadoes can show just how powerful nature can be. Explanation Tornadoes are deadly winds, rotating at up to two hundred and fifty plus miles per hour (Tornado Facts and History). These transparent clouds can be deadly in a matter of seconds. With clear skies behind them, these…
Wind: An Energy Source Alternative Wind power is a renewable source of energy. Wind turbines convert the wind’s kinetic energy into mechanical or electrical energy that can be used for power. Wind energy is viewed as a clean alternative to fossil fuels and can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Wind energy can provide a lot of benefits to the ecosystem and economy of the United States. While wind energy does have a lot of perks, some people argue that wind energy is an expensive and…
primarily. Purpose: The purpose of my speech is to persuade my class to believe that solar power is best energy source for the U.S. I. Introduction A. Attention Getter: Leonardo DiCaprio, an environmental activist and all around beautiful person once said, “ New research shows that by 2050 clean, renewable energy could supply 100% of the world’s energy needs using existing technologies.” B. Thesis: Solar power is the best option out there for a clean and renewable energy source. C. Preview: I…
GoGreen research on Apple Apple is a world famous technology company 1. What product the company produces and how Apple producing mobile phones and computers, the pollution happened as the electronic producer. Korean company LG made LCD Panels, Samsung made Batteries, and SK Hynix made Chipset. Taiwan company TSMC made DRAM & Flash Memory of the iPhone. A French-Italian company STMicroelecronics produced the Gyroscope in iPhone. 85% of all are assembled in China Foxconn. 2. What externalities…
burning of fossil fuels. But some people say that non-renewable energy is too much money, and not as reliable compared to the burning of fossil fuel. What I was to find is if the advantages outweigh the disadvantages of using solar energy, Hydroelectric, wind energy, and Nuclear energy for our energy sources. I also want to understand how each of the non-renewable energy systems work and what technology they use. INTRODUCTION Global warming is one of the biggest…
The high speeding winds knocking over trees, or the powerful waves combined with intense rainfall have caused serious amounts of damage. Almost every country struck by the storm has been affected by severe flooding. The Dominican Republic arguably was affected the least.…
infrastructure of the United States, the only way the US can generate enough energy effectively and efficiently is by combining nuclear, hydroelectric, solar, wind, and biofuels. Nuclear can generate a solid baseline in which solar can add on to during the day when energy usage is near its highest. The rest of the sources can add onto what is being produced by nuclear and can then match the energy fluctuations so we aren 't over or under producing. Also, having multiple power sources will help…
best option. Instead of using nuclear power, we should use solar power and wind turbines. Nuclear power would have the potential to harm humans and the globe. The toxins released from the use of this could produce the radioactivity to harm humans’ genetics and could possibly lead to global warming. On top of being harmful, it could explode. If this were to happen, many of us would be gone and it would alter the means of life that are currently here on earth. Wind turbines and solar panels are…
Hurricanes Hurricanes are an example of nature’s greatest manifestations of God 's power and peace simultaneously. Throughout history, hurricanes have been recognized as some of the most violent storms ever recorded. A hurricane can be defined as, “ A violent, tropical, cyclonic storm of the western North Atlantic, having wind speeds of or in excess of 72 miles per hour.” Cyclonic storms are those with, “A system of winds rotating inward to an area of low atmospheric pressure, with a…
significantly impacted the energy world is the advancement in wind turbines. Wind turbines are a clean source of energy that provides communities a source of power by sending the energy generated from the spinning blades to a power grid where the power is distributed to the consumers as needed. These machines can be found primarily…
