This document summarizes a student's learning about finite resources through various projects. It discusses that finite resources like fossil fuels will run out and how alternative energy sources can help. Through a home energy audit, the student discovered ways to conserve electricity by turning off lights when rooms are empty. At school, recycling bins were added after discovering a lack of recycling. The student then led a campaign to promote paper recycling by making bins and giving a speech. They also enjoyed making a music video with lyrics about recycling to educate others.

This document summarizes a student's reflections on learning about finite resources and taking environmental actions. The student learned that finite resources like fossil fuels will run out, and burning them harms air quality. They conducted a home energy audit and school recycling campaign. For the campaign, they made recycling boxes for classrooms and collected paper daily. The student also enjoyed making an environmental music video with persuasive lyrics about saving the earth. They plan to continue recycling to help the planet.

The student learned that finite resources like coal, oil and gas will eventually run out, and that conserving them can reduce pollution and habitat destruction. They discovered through a home energy audit the importance of turning off lights when rooms are unused. At school, an energy audit found a lack of recycling bins, so the student set a goal to create bins and educate about recycling. For a school project, the student made recycling bins, taught proper use, and collected recycled materials. They enjoyed the creative process but found education challenging. The student also made an environmental music video and learned trees provide air for many people. Overall, the student most enjoyed creating a magazine article for the unit and wants to continue improving their writing.

Sarthak learned that finite resources like coal, oil, and wood have limited supplies and producing them causes pollution. It is important to conserve these fossil fuels and use alternative energy sources like solar, wind, and water power. Sarthak discovered through a home energy audit that his house uses a lot of energy, so he set goals to conserve more. At his school, an energy audit found issues like lights left on in empty rooms and some classes lacking recycling bins, so goals were set to address these problems. Sarthak helped lead a school campaign to promote paper recycling by making bins and educating others, though it was difficult explaining their proper use to younger students. He enjoyed making a music video at a green screen to

The finite times
Coal is collected through surface or underground mining methods. Surface mining uses large machines to remove topsoil and rock layers to access coal deposits underneath. Underground mining involves using elevators to access deep tunnels where miners cut coal. Coal forms over hundreds of millions of years from decaying plant matter and is a non-renewable fossil fuel. Communities depend on the coal industry as it provides around 40% of the world's electricity and is used to make many other products. However, burning coal also harms the environment by releasing pollutants like carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen dioxide that cause issues like global warming, acid rain, and smog. Better management of the coal industry could involve using pollution control devices and transition

Wood comes from rainforests where loggers cut down trees using chainsaws or machinery. Lumber is wood from cut trees that is used to build houses, make furniture, and produce paper and pencils. The logging industry can damage forests by clear cutting, which removes all trees and damages animal habitats and the environment. A more sustainable alternative is strip logging, which removes trees in a way that mimics natural forest growth.

The document discusses the wood industry and its impacts. It explains that wood comes from rainforests where loggers cut down trees using chainsaws or machines. The wood is then used to build houses, make furniture, and produce paper and pencils. However, logging large numbers of trees can damage rainforests and their ecosystems. Clear cutting whole areas can eliminate food and oxygen sources for animals and cause problems like flooding and global warming by reducing carbon dioxide absorption. A more sustainable alternative is strip logging, which mimics natural forest growth patterns.

Wood comes from rainforests where loggers use chainsaws or machines to collect different types of wood. Lumber is wood from cut down trees that is used to build houses and make everyday items like paper, pencils, and furniture. The logging industry provides wood that people rely on but cutting down many trees can damage forests. Better management of this resource and reducing wood use could help address the environmental impacts.

Coal is a black solid rock that was formed from dead plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. It is collected through surface mining, using machines to dig holes, or underground mining by building tunnels. Coal is then brought out of the mines and transported to power plants where it is burned to produce electricity. However, coal is a finite resource that takes a long time to form, and our heavy reliance on it for electricity is not sustainable and also harms the environment by polluting the air. Alternative energy sources like wind, solar, and water could help reduce our coal usage.

Oil is collected from deep underground using large drills and pumps. It is found in places that were once underwater, where dead plants and animals were buried under layers of mud and sand over millions of years. Once extracted, oil is sent to refineries where it is cleaned and separated into useful parts like gasoline, diesel, and kerosene. However, oil is a finite resource that will eventually run out. It also harms the environment by contributing to issues like global warming, air pollution, and acid rain when burned as fuel. More sustainable energy sources could help reduce our dependence on oil.
The finite times
We depend on oil for many products and energy, but it is a finite resource that comes from decomposed plants and animals trapped underground millions of years ago. Oil is collected through drilling and pumping from oil fields below the surface. While the oil industry is important for energy and jobs, it also causes environmental problems like global warming, acid rain, and pollution from spills. We could reduce our dependence on oil by using less energy and developing cleaner energy sources like solar.
The finite times
Underground mining and surface mining are used to collect coal. For underground mining, deep tunnels are built and miners use elevators to reach the coal deposits. Once collected, the top layers of soil and rock are replaced. Coal is a hard black or brown rock that can be burned as a fuel source. It provides an important source of electricity but the heavy worldwide usage of over 5.3 billion tons per year means the supply will not last forever and burning coal harms the environment by contributing to global warming. Better management of coal resources could include reducing usage through recycling and using cleaner energy sources from plants equipped with pollution control technology.
Finite times(oil)
Oil is a finite resource that is formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals. It is usually found underground in rock formations beneath the sea and is collected through drilling wells deep into the Earth. While oil provides many useful products and fuels modern life, it is non-renewable and its extraction and use also causes environmental damage like global warming and oil spills. Scientists are working on new technologies to extract more oil efficiently and mitigate the impacts of the oil industry.

Coal forms over millions of years from the remains of dead plants and animals. It is collected through underground or surface mining methods. We depend on coal as an important resource because it provides electricity, heat, and is used in manufacturing industries. However, coal mining and the factories that use coal for energy can pollute the air and water and damage habitats. More sustainable alternatives like solar and wind could help reduce our use of this finite resource.
