Hurumanu - fossil fuels

In science, we have been learning about climate change issues. First, we watched a video about carbon dioxide and ect. After that Mr Palmer wrote 6 emissions about climate change they are Transport, cows. food, factories, waste and landfill. After that, he gave us 2 pieces of paper 1 with all of the emissions and a blurb about them and the other 1 has a ranking sheet 1 to 6. Then we had to put them in order biggest to smallest. After he told us to write 1 sentence for each one transport - Most cars need gas or diesel to work. These come from oil, which is a fossil fuel. The carbon-di-oxide in oil goes into the atmosphere when the car is running electricity - Electricity is a form of energy used to power almost everything in our homes. Electricity can come from renewable sources ( water, wind, sun) and non-renewable sources like fossil fuels (oil, and gas ). Fossil fuels release CO2 into the atmosphere
