This is so sad https://t.co/qbPooebIVJ

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

Agree, but our country is wide and climate is different we may have challenges getting there but will do so one day https://t.co/cw1de1vkY5

#RenewableEnergy #CleanEnergy. Hopefully Canada can reach 75% of renewable energy use too someday!

@melgendreau @TA_Andrew_P273 True 😂I read about solar power shingles for roofs but I can picture people trying to clean their roof and falling in the winter

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

Wow did not know this ....perhaps we need to start investing in solar panels for our homes ... https://t.co/mNvjh77VR6

[Melanie Gendreau @melgendreau]

So I just learned that solar panels operate better in cold sunny weather. Like most electronics, solar panels function more efficiently in cold conditions than in hot. #phys273 #solarpower #solarpanels #lesson6

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

However not all countries receive the same amount of sun therefore not all countries can take advantage of all that solar energy https://t.co/4bYtCiIPSS

Poor ocean where fishes and mammals are forced to change their migration patterns. https://t.co/B7vuZldDNP

[Justine Beaudoin-Poulin @beaudoin_poulin]

Chasing Coral shows very good imagery of the underwater reality of climate change and the warming of the Ocean! In the documentary I learned that 93% of the Earth's warming is actually absorbed by the ocean which is why we might not be feeling it as much on land.

Glad I don’t eat a lot of meat https://t.co/fy4poAwyty

[Melanie Gendreau @melgendreau]

Crazy and eye-opening stats about living a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. Even if you reduce your meat consumption, you are still helping!☺ #lesson12 #vegetarian #benefits

I’ve been delinquent with this habit, but consciously trying to make an effort to not let water run. https://t.co/fZB2GjOnmF

[Melanie Gendreau @melgendreau]

Saving water is one of the simple ways to reduce carbon usage. When you brush your teeth, turn off the tap or take shorter showers. It takes energy to pump and heat the water. #lesson11 #phys273 #carbon #water

Why do we do things that is hurting our chances of prevent climate change. https://t.co/PGpqinR7c9

[Jamie Ness @Jamie_Ness4]

Deforestation is such a large contributor to climate change because forests act as carbon sinks. Therefore when we remove them, we remove a sink, and thus a place for carbon to be stored. https://t.co/w2pqXtrFaF

@ajacquin_273 Hoping to have an actual summer this year

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

Wow this is good news https://t.co/t99DLX3IzY

[CNN Business @CNNBusiness]

Apple is now completely powered by clean energy https://t.co/rnfitJl4Cy

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

@han_boyi There are pros and cons to every energy source. Everything in moderation I guess?

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

This is sad news- we need to be better than our past generations and leave the earth in better shape for the future https://t.co/JUFv1fW4z6

[Tans T @ttans05]

NASA predicts "the Arctic Ocean will likely become ice free in summer before mid century."

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

I think all energy sources both renewable and non have pros and cons, best way to save the earth is for us as consumers to use energy is moderation. Hang your clothes out to dry, take a walk to the corner store instead of the car.... https://t.co/NGM5f9TuHz

[Kyra Carleton @CarletonKyra]

It's always important to think about both sides of a situation, even something as promising as renewable hydroelectric energy...#Lesson4

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

Thank god they do, we have had to evacuate our office building a few times due to the gas smell. https://t.co/ZJrZiFUXmW

[Omid @ca_skyismylimit]

Natural gas is lighter than air. It does't have smell and colerless. Utility companies add mercaptan that smells like rotten eggs to help make gas leaks easier to notice.

Although the fossil fuel rate is amazing, Iceland uses geothermal energy which also has its pros and cons
See them here https://t.co/omAKjHzFa1 https://t.co/4pFqZ8oiAB

[Kyra Carleton @CarletonKyra]

Raise your hand if your now moving to Iceland 🙋🏻🙋🏻🙋🏻 that 11.5% fossil fuel energy consumption rate is amazing! #Lesson4

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

@ttans05 Yes it is, good to see that although we aren’t where we need to be as a society, we are doing things to at least prevent significant growth

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

According to Natural Resources Canada, Energy use grew by 31% between 1990 and 2014. Without energy efficiency improvements, energy use would have grown by 55% #energyefficiency #EnergyConservation

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

Think they need to start teaching the reasons much earlier. https://t.co/G0j0Oj1EXe

[Alexander Williams @A_IAM96]

I remember being in high school watching all these videos about our climate and environment. I only understood the concept but understanding the reasons why and the science behind it all makes this such more of a bigger issue to me personally, and hopefully the world

[SharKaru_phys273 @sharkaru]

If we export so much electricity to the us why are we then importing electricity? Shouldn’t we give it amongst ourselves first ? #confused #electricity #PHYS273
