1

Categorize these natural resources as either renewable or non-renewable:

Water (in aquifers)
Rocks and Minerals
Water (above ground)
Plants and Animals
Sunlight
Air
Fossil Fuels

Renewable Resources
Non-Renewable Resources

1

What is it called/what is produced when fossil fuels are burned?

1

What is the sum of all of the resources a human consumes and all of the waste created and left behind?

1

These are resources that CANNOT be replaced during our lifetimes.

1

People try to conserve some resources, like fossil fuels, because they are not replaceable. Why can’t these resources be replaced?

1

Select all the fossil fuels we have learned about in class:

1

People move into and begin living in an area that previously had no human activity. What will most likely be the effect on the amount of water?

1

Select the choice below that describes the best how petroleum is created:

1

The claim is made that carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced by increasing the amount of electricity produced by wind. Which pair of graphs, showing data for CO2 emissions and wind production of electricity would support this claim?

1

Scientists estimate that our total resources will only support 2 billion people

1

What word describes not being harmful to the environment and not depleting natural resources

1

Metals such as copper are found where _________________

1

Oil and natural gas are found in areas where there are past or present ________________.

1

In areas where biodiversity is poor, the destruction of a given number of square miles of habitat would likely affect a greater number of species

1

Would feeding an ever-growing population be a postive or negative human impact on our environment?

1

Are infrastructure changes a major positive or negative human impact on our environment?

1

Anything humans use that are obtained from the Earth?

1

Which of the following claims is supported by the data?

1

What happened during the 19th century that led to humans using fossil fuels for industry and infrastructure?

1

Do greenhouse gases help us trap heat so our planet stays warmer, or release heat so we cool off?

1

Which of the following would be evidence of climate change?

1

When carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere from fossil fuel combustion, plants in the biosphere are able to absorb and store some of it. This is why plant life is called a __________________?

1

Deforestation __________ the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
