Geothermal Energy


Today we learned. Renewable and non-renewable resources. That had included Geothermal, Wind, Solar, and Water energy. All of these energies are good and they also have thier drawbacks also.

But my favorite energy is Geothermal. I like it beacause of it deals with the heat. It is some what and endless supply of energy right now. If you want this type of renewable energy you have to first. Drill a hole that is narrow but also very deep almost near lava ( magma). The next a machine that will take the heat to the Geothermal power plant. Then there it will be turned into power and be distributed into the houses of people. This energy also have drawbacks. Its major drawback is that if you build all of this near a volcanoe. There is a possibility that it will melt if the vocanoe eurpted and then you will to replace all that was gone and that will cost a lot of money to replace it. The estimate is no less that 16,000$.

My favorite map would have to be Gnomic Projection Map because. It is telling you or showing you a single point of the globe, but it is showing you the point or how it looks while it is flat. It is also showing you the himisphere as well and the equator. Since it is showing you how it will look if it was flat all the way around. It always includes the North Pole if it includes the top half of the hemisphers or it will include the South Pole and the other hempishers as well

Anthony Earth Scienc Earth science is the study of geology. Earth science may also include subdivisions such as geochemistrty,geophysics,geobiology, and paletology. All of this will help me learn about Earth science because. It is telling me about Earth but it is also breaking it down so I can understand Earth science better. Like geology is being broken down into two major parts that are called Physical geology and Historical geology. Physical geology is telling about the Earth. While Historical geology is telling about the past or the history of the Earth like how was the Earth formed. My favorite out of Earth science is Oceanography because. It helps you understand the oceans of the Earth and how they help it form. It tells you about the movement of the sea water. It will also help you understand the Marin life that happens at the bottom of the ocean. Like how the sharks or whales formed from the past all the way to the present.
