Non-Renewable EnergyFossil Fuels
• Coal, Oil and Gas are called "fossil fuels“ because they have been formed from the fossilized remains of prehistoric plants and animals.
• They provide around 66% of the world's electrical power, and 95% of the world's total energy demands

OIL and NATURAL GAS
• Accumulations of dead marine organisms on the ocean floor were covered by sediments.
• Muddy rock gradually formed rock (shale) containing dispersed oil.
• Sandstone formed on top of shale, thus oil pools began to form.
• Natural gas often forms on top of oil.• Primary component of natural gas is methane

• Stages of coal formation• 300 million year old forests• peat > lignite > bituminous > anthracite• Primarily strip-mined
• Used mostly for generating electricity• Used to generate 62% of the world’s electricity• Used to generate 52% of the U.S. electricity
• Enough coal for about 200-1000 years• U.S. has 25% of world’s reserves
• High environmental impact• Coal gasification and liquefaction

Non-Renewable EnergyNuclear Energy
• A nuclear change in which nuclei of certain isotopes with large mass numbers are split apart into lighter nuclei when struck by neutrons.– Nuclei – center of an atom, making up0 most of the atom’s mass– Isotopes – two or more forms of a chemical element that have the
same number of protons but different mass numbers because they have different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei.
– Neutron – elementary particle in all atoms.– Radioactivity – Unstable nuclei of atoms shoot out “chunks” of
mass and energy.

• All 120 plants ordered in 1973 have been cancelled.
• Cost over-runs
• High operating costs
• Three Mile Island
• Chernobyl

Dealing with Nuclear Waste
• High- and low-level wastes• Terrorist threats – storage casks hold 5-10 X more
ling-lived radioactivity than the nuclear power plant• Disposal proposals
• Underground burial• Disposal in space (illegal under international law)• Burial in ice sheets (“ “)• Dumping into subduction zones (“ “)• Burial in ocean mud (“ “)• Conversion into harmless materials (no way to do this with
current technology)

Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy
• 84% of energy is wasted in the United States– 41% degradation (2nd law of Thermodynamics)– 43% unnecessary
• Fuel wasting vehicles• Furnaces• Poorly insulated buildings
• U.S. unnecessarily wastes 2/3 of the energy that the rest of the world’s population consumes!

Energy Efficiency
• Efficiency is getting out what you put in.• Four primary energy wasters:
– Incandescent light bulb 95%– Nuclear Power – 86% – Cars – 75-80%– Coal – 66%
• We either need to make more efficient products or change our energy sources
