Strand ENVS.2: AVAILABILITY AND USE OF NATURAL ENERGY

Energy sources are necessary for human society. Sources of energy can either be renewable or nonrenewable and have varying levels of quantity and proportion. Energy sources originate and are consumed differently. Energy plans provide a way to measure and calculate need and energy consumption in a sustainable way.

Standard ENVS.2.2

Analyze and interpret data to communicate information on the origins, quantity/proportion, and consumption of renewable and nonrenewable energy sources. Examples of renewable energy sources could include wind, solar, geothermal, biofuel, or tidal. Examples of non-renewable energy sources could include fossil fuels and nuclear energy.
