50% of coal production is exported in Canada #phys273

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

30% of crude oil is produced offshore #phys273

When petroleum products are refined they get separated according to their boiling points #phys273

50% of oil production in Canada is exported #phys273

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

In North America since 2005 oil consumption has plateaued #phys273

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Hydro is the way Canada produces most of its electricity #phys273

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

In North America, since 2005 natural gas consumption has increased #phys273

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Hydro power is a renewable resource #phys273

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

YES! Thanks for the refresher! #phys273

DID YOU KNOW: Coal is the most abundant fossil fuel

#lesson5 #phys273 #fossilfuels

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Couldn’t agree more! #phys273

[Marco @JeanMarcEid1]

Its great to here that the percentage of fossil fuel consumption is decreasing in highly developed countries
#phys273 #lesson4

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Never forget! #phys273

[Adriana @Adriana35190827]

Memorable notes: the most abundant air pollutant is carbon monoxide! #Phys273 #lesson10

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Atleast! 🙏🏻🙏🏻#phys273

[Adriana @Adriana35190827]

In Canada the number of rail and truck oil related incidents has been steady over the last 10 years so at least its not increasing! #Phys273 #lesson10

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Exactly! #phys273

[Adriana @Adriana35190827]

What makes the earth actually warmer? The answer to this is the greenhouse effect! #Phys273 #lesson11

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

So interesting! #phys2731

[Adriana @Adriana35190827]

Plants and animals exchange carbon through respiration and photosynthesis, when animals and plants decompose there’s a carbon exchange as well, and there’s even carbon in soil— so there’s carbon moving around everywhere #Phys273 #lesson11

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Omg anxiety ! #phys273

[Adriana @Adriana35190827]

By 2100, the combination of high temperature and humidity in some areas for parts of the year is expected to compromise common human activities including growing food and working! #Phys273 #lesson12

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Hopefully it doesn’t get to that point #phys273

[Adriana @Adriana35190827]

In the next 50 years or so, if things continue along the general path they are on now (which is increasing) we would double the emissions caused by humans! #Phys273 #lesson12

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

So horrifying! #phys273

[Adriana @Adriana35190827]

The earth has been warming over the last hundred years or so and the current temperature is the highest it’s been in roughly 1000 years! #Phys273 #lesson11

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

I totally agree! Never too young #phys273

[rebeccaflis @rebeccaflis]

Good way to put it! #phys273

FUN FACT: Another advantage of damns is once we have the energy built up, it works as a battery so we could use it at another time.
