• 2.2.1 Energy Resources that we use

  -Energy resources are nature resources used for generating power.
• -Major Energy Resources in World

  ➀Coal(Tube that hv black smoke/black山) ➁Natural gas(tall tube that hv white smoke) ➂Oil/Petroleum石油(a big thing on sea) : These are formed underground from the remains of dead plants and animals from millions of years ago

  ➃Nuclear power核電(fat tube &橢圓形柱）: It is produced by the nuclear reaction of some radioactive elements, e.g. uranium

  ➄Fuelwood(樹) : It is wood cut from trees

  ➅Biofuel(植物or花 ): It is produced from plant and animal products or waste
• -Major Energy Resources in World

  ➆Solar power : It is converted from sunlight

  ➇Wind power : It is generated when wind blows

  ➈Hydroelectric power (HEP) (a wall in high point to ground): It is produced by water falling from a great height

  ➉Tidal power (a road connect two side): It is produced by the changing levels of tides

  ⑪Wave power (near beach): It is converted from the energy of sea waves

  ⑫Geothermal power( 管連住地底): It is produced by the intense heat from the molten rock beneath the earth's crust
• 2.2.2 Most widely used Energy Resources

  -Oil + Coal + Natural gas {Fossil fuels} about 84% of the Energy consumption in the world
• 2.2.3 wha is Fossil fuels?

  A.Formation

  -formed underground of dead plants & animals from millions of years ago (Although they are different forms & colours, but formed in the same way)
• 2.2.3 wha is Fossil fuels?

  B.Benefits

  • Fossil fuels is most widely used Energy Resources,∵?

   ~coal is cheap to mine

   ~drilling techniques of oil & natural gas are mature

   ~produced much energy & are convenient to use

   ~can be transported to most areas at a low cost
• 2.2.3 wha is Fossil fuels?

  C.Distribution

  -The global distribution of fossil fuels is uneven

  -coal mainly found in Asia Pacific, Russia & USA 

  -oil & natural gas are heavily concentrated集中 in middle East

  -Russia & North America are imported reserves 

  (*Russia[large reserves of 3 types],China,India,Australia,USA=largest reserves of coal)
