A natural resource is any material that exists naturally and has economic value, such as trees, water, soil, air, and minerals. Resources are either renewable, like trees and solar energy which can regenerate within years, or nonrenewable, like soil, fossil fuels, and minerals which take extremely long periods to form. Because nonrenewable resources can easily run out, conservation of resources like soil, air, water, and fuels is important through practices such as preventing erosion, reducing pollution and waste, and using renewable energy whenever possible.

A natural resource is any material that exists naturally and has economic value, with examples being trees, water, soil, air, and minerals. Resources are either renewable, like trees and solar energy which can regenerate within years, or nonrenewable which include fossil fuels and take extremely long periods to form. Because nonrenewable resources can easily run out, conservation is important, such as practices to prevent soil erosion, save water, and reduce air pollution from sources like industry.
Renewable and non renewable resources
This document classifies natural resources as either renewable or nonrenewable. Renewable resources, such as trees, plants, animals, water, sunlight and wind can be replenished naturally or through human efforts. Nonrenewable resources like coal, oil, natural gas, gold, silver and iron exist in finite amounts and get depleted once extracted from the earth. The document provides examples of renewable and nonrenewable resources and asks the reader to classify additional resources into the two categories.
The Need for Sustainable Energy Solutions
Sustainable energy solutions are forms of energy production that are renewable, unlike fossil fuels which are finite. Sustainable sources of energy include the sun, the tides and other bodies of water, the wind, and the natural heat that rises from the earth (geothermal). There are many reasons why we need to increase our use of sustainable energy and use fewer fossil fuels.

Natural resources
Renewable energies like solar, wind, and hydropower are cleaner alternatives to fossil fuels as they don't pollute the air or water. Solar energy harnesses the sun's power through solar panels but is dependent on sunlight and space. Wind power uses wind turbines but kills wildlife and causes noise pollution. Hydropower is safer than fossil fuels but dams can damage habitats and cut off fish migration routes. Non-renewable fossil fuels are still widely used because renewable energies are difficult to store and more expensive to produce electricity from, though they are becoming more viable with technological advances.
What Is Climate
The document discusses climate change and its effects. It defines climate and how it changes naturally and due to human activity like burning fossil fuels. Climate change can affect human society through impacts like droughts disrupting agriculture. Scientists study climate using temperature and greenhouse gas observations. Individuals can address climate change by reducing their energy use, recycling, and making sustainable choices.
Global Climate Change Solutions -Markeyla Robinson
Global climate change has no single solution and will require efforts from all over the world. The essay discusses several solutions: reducing deforestation, consuming less and switching to more plant-based diets, using renewable resources like solar and wind instead of fossil fuels, and making lifestyle changes like living closer to work to drive less. All of these solutions aim to lower greenhouse gas emissions, one of the primary causes of climate change. Small changes from many individuals, such as reducing meat consumption or switching to renewable energy, can collectively make a significant impact on lowering emissions and slowing global warming even if no single solution provides a complete remedy.
Global warming
Global warming affects animals in several ways. As the climate changes, some animals are unable to adapt and their populations decline or they die off. Polar bears and phytoplankton are examples of species negatively impacted by warming temperatures. However, some animals can adapt, such as great tits that breed earlier in response to food sources maturing ahead of schedule, and red squirrels that breed earlier to store more food for winter. While some organisms cannot adapt to climate change, others possess the ability to change behaviors and timing of life cycles in response to global warming.
Power Plants and Aquatic Life
Thermal pollution from power plants raises the temperature of nearby aquatic environments like rivers and lakes. This warming water holds less dissolved oxygen, disrupting ecosystems. Species that require cooler, oxygen-rich water may die off or be forced to relocate. Remaining organisms face increased disease and chemical exposure as temperatures rise. Over time, these changes can damage biodiversity as some species overpopulate at the expense of others. While regulations now aim to lessen thermal impacts, monitoring and alternative energy development remain important for protecting fragile aquatic environments.
Conventional & non conventional By: MOULIK AGRAWAL
This document discusses conventional and non-conventional energy resources. It defines conventional resources as those used for energy since ancient times, such as coal, natural gas, oil, and firewood. These resources form over long periods from decaying organic matter but release stored carbon and greenhouse gases when burned. Non-conventional resources discussed include solar, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, bioenergy and tidal power. These resources are abundant, renewable, and can be supplied to both urban and rural areas without pollution.
Climate change

In this lesson you will comprehend how the consumption of everyday p.docx
In this lesson you will comprehend how the consumption of everyday products affects the availability of renewable and nonrenewable natural resources for future generations and learn about environmental threats to our home.
Read the following information to help you define three different types of resources—renewable, nonrenewable, perpetual.
1. On earth, there are only limited amounts of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas. There are also only limited amounts of minerals, such as iron, copper and bauxite. These resources either cannot be replaced by natural processes or require millions of years to replenish.
2. Some renewable and nonrenewable resources can be recycled or reused. This process decreases the rate at which the supplies of these resources are depleted. For example, aluminum cans can be recycled and turned into “new” cans or other aluminum products many times over. Recycling reduces the need to mine bauxite, the mineral used to manufacture aluminum.
3. Renewable natural resources include plants, animals and water when they are properly cared for. Minerals and fossil fuels such as coal and oil are examples of nonrenewable natural resources.
4. Trees, wildlife, water and many other natural resources are replaced by natural processes. Plants and animals can also be replenished by human activities. Water is continuously cycled and reused. Sunlight, wind, geothermal heat, tides and flowing water are perpetual resources.
Water is a resource that is typically considered renewable. However, over usage of water can cause us to use it faster than it is replenished.
The chart below approximates daily water consumption in the United States:
1. Thermoelectric Utilities 187 billion gallons/day
2. Irrigation 137 billion gallons/day
3. Public Water Supply 36 billion gallons/day
4. Industry 26 billion gallons/day
5. Rural and Livestock 8 billion gallons/day
Total 394 billion gallons/day
What are the threats to our environment?
Biodiversity
Biodiversity is all of the Earth's plants, animals, ecosystems and genes. It includes the tallest tree, the smallest insect, and the most delicate coral reef ecosystem. Biodiversity is what allows the Earth and all of its creatures to adapt and survive.
As humans, we are completely dependent on biodiversity for survival. Yet we are destroying large parts of our natural world. In places far and wide, humans are squeezing out other forms of life, sometimes causing the extinction of entire species.
We have the power to change our course. Each of us can act to protect our biodiversity and help create a sustainable future for life on Earth. Learn more about biodiversity and how

Human interaction with the environment
Natural resources include air, water, plants, animals, soil and energy sources like fossil fuels and sunlight. Fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas were formed over millions of years from the remains of ancient organisms. They are non-renewable resources that are being depleted. There are three main types of environmental pollution - air, water and soil pollution, which are caused by human activities and harm the environment, wildlife and human health. Major pollutants include greenhouse gases that cause issues like global warming, and waste and chemicals that contaminate air, water and soil.
Natural resources and related aspects
Natural resources can be classified based on their exhaustibility. Resources include perpetual resources like sun and wind, renewable resources like forests and plants, and non-renewable resources like fossil fuels. Deforestation has many causes like agriculture, logging, and construction. It has negative effects such as increased flooding, soil erosion, loss of biodiversity, and climate change. Social forestry programs aim to supply rural communities with forest products and improve the environment.

Natural rresources conservation by Muhammad Fahad Ansari12IEEM14
The document discusses natural resources and their conservation. It defines natural resources as materials needed to sustain life that come from nature, such as air, water, land, forests and minerals. Resources are classified as renewable, like sunlight, water and trees; and non-renewable, like coal, which do not regrow or take a very long time to regrow. The document emphasizes the importance of conserving non-renewable resources as human demand increases and stresses the need for sustainable use of the Earth's resources to protect ecosystems.
Natural resources ppt
The document discusses different types of natural resources. It defines natural resources as supplies from nature that humans use to survive, such as coal, oil, iron, timber, rivers, animals, and sunlight. Natural resources are classified as renewable, nonrenewable, or inexhaustible. Renewable resources can be replaced within a relatively short time, such as plants, animals, water, and air. Nonrenewable resources cannot be replaced in a short time and are limited, consisting of fossil fuels and minerals. Inexhaustible resources can be replaced as fast as they are used and will never run out, including sunlight, wind, and ocean tides.
Role of individual in preserving natural resources (1)
Individuals play an important role in preserving natural resources in 3 key ways:
1. Conserving renewable resources like forests and water by reducing consumption, practicing sustainable agriculture, and preventing pollution.
2. Reducing the use of non-renewable resources like minerals by using more efficient technologies and recycling.
3. Adopting energy conservation practices like proper insulation, switching to LED bulbs, and maintaining appliances to reduce energy bills and dependency on non-renewable sources. Together, individual efforts can help ensure natural resources last for future generations.
environmental conventional and action
The relationship between humanity and the environment is a delicate balance. Since the industrial revolution, the world's population has increased exponentially, and with the population growth, the environment has been profoundly affected. Deforestation, pollution and global climate changes are amongst the adverse effects the population and technological expansion has introduced. Included in this category are both subjects dealing with attempts to reduce the negative impact on the environment, and subjects which aim to gain a greater understanding of the environment itself.
Human intervention
This document discusses trees, deforestation, fossil fuels, and conservation. It covers:
1) The importance of trees for habitat, oxygen production, and products like timber.
2) Causes of deforestation like wood usage, grazing, and urbanization and its effects like soil erosion, habitat destruction, and climate change.
3) Consequences of overextracting fossil fuels like resource depletion, air pollution, and threats to organisms.
4) Ways to conserve forests like afforestation and awareness programs, and fossil fuels through renewable energy sources like wind, hydroelectric, nuclear, and solar power.
Pollutions and Solutions
This document discusses how human activities negatively impact air quality, climate change, forests, and biodiversity, which affects human health. It outlines how increased air pollution from automobiles, factories, and power plants can cause respiratory issues. Climate change, driven by greenhouse gas emissions and deforestation, is linked to various health problems. Deforestation reduces environmental services like carbon absorption and increases flooding risks. Potential solutions proposed include reducing pollution, transitioning to renewable energy, and establishing more nature reserves to help mitigate these issues.

Geologic Similes
The document discusses four geologic principles - uniformitarianism, superposition, original horizontality, and catastrophism - and compares each principle to the layers of a cake. Uniformitarianism is like a cake in that the ingredients and process of making a cake are always the same. Superposition is like a cake as the bottom layer was placed first and each subsequent layer above it is younger. Original horizontality is like cake layers in that they should be placed horizontally. Catastrophism is like a dropped cake that is suddenly ruined. The document provides additional examples comparing the principles to other everyday items like clothes piles and bicycles.
Exploration
Ancient societies like the Egyptians, Mayans, and builders of Stonehenge began exploring the night sky to develop calendars and track seasonal changes. Greeks like Aristotle and Ptolemy developed early geocentric models of the solar system, though their ideas were inaccurate. Copernicus, Brahe, Kepler, Galileo and Newton made important contributions to establishing the heliocentric model through observations, mathematics, and physics theories like gravity. Continued exploration has led to discoveries of new objects in our solar system like Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and the Kuiper Belt.
What time is it?
The document discusses the Earth's rotation and revolution and how it influences time measurements. It takes the Earth approximately 24 hours to complete one rotation on its axis. The days of the week are named after objects visible in the sky, with Sunday through Friday named after the sun, moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, and Venus. Months are based on the moon's cycle around Earth, taking approximately 28 days, while years represent the time for Earth to complete one revolution around the sun, which takes 365.2422 days.
Geologic Principle Similes
The document discusses geological principles for understanding the Earth's history using the analogy of a layer cake. It explains four key principles:
1) Uniformitarianism - geological processes occurred the same way in the past as today, like how cakes are made the same way each time.
2) Superposition - the oldest sedimentary layers are on the bottom, like how cake layers are placed with the bottom being oldest.
3) Original Horizontality - sedimentary rocks form in horizontal layers, similar to cake layers being placed horizontally.
4) Catastrophism - geological change can occur suddenly, akin to a dropped cake being ruined suddenly.
Dance of the planets
The document describes the fundamental force of gravity. It explains that gravity is a weak but predictable force that helped form the universe and has a constant presence, distorting space and time and acting on all matter through mass. Gravity keeps objects like ourselves on Earth and the Earth orbiting the sun according to laws proposed by Newton and Einstein describing gravity's proportional relationship to mass and dependence on net force and inertia.
Why do we measure time the way that we do
Day and night are caused by the Earth's rotation on its axis over 24 hours. Weeks consist of 7 days which are associated with the sun and visible objects in the night sky. Months are based on the moon's approximately 29.5 day revolution around Earth, though months contain 30-31 days. Years measure the 365.2422 days it takes Earth to orbit the sun, requiring a leap year every four years, except for centennial years which must be divisible by 400 to be a leap year.
Cloud Challenge: Alto Clouds
This document discusses two types of middle-level clouds known as alto clouds: altostratus and altocumulus. Altostratus clouds are gray and blue clouds that often cover the sky and are associated with areas of storms and continuous precipitation, composed of ice and water droplets. Altocumulus clouds appear as gray, puffy masses that form in parallel waves or bands, usually occurring on warm, humid summer mornings and often indicating upcoming thunderstorms. Pictures and websites with additional information about alto clouds are also provided.

This document provides information about classifying and identifying rocks and minerals. It includes directions for an in-class activity where students will classify rocks, label the rock cycle, and answer questions about rock and mineral formation. It also describes a review game where students answer questions as a group about topics like the three main rock types, what rocks are made of, how rocks are used, and processes involved in the rock cycle.
Minerals Review
This document contains 10 questions about minerals and answers the questions. It tests knowledge about the definitions of minerals, including that minerals must be inorganic, form repeating crystalline patterns, and can form through crystallization of magma. It also covers hardness of common minerals on the Mohs scale such as diamond, quartz and talc. The questions assess understanding of how minerals form inside the Earth and on its surface.
Where does it come from?
The things we use everyday come from minerals, animals, and plant products. Can you identify the items and their sources?

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
