TRUE or FALSE?
“The world’s electricity consumption is predicted to increase by 100% in the next 25 years."
![Page 9: The 4 Es of Energy Environment, Economics, Efficiency & Education Energy Education for Upper Elementary Students (Gr. 4-6) Brought to you by.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649de45503460f94adb30e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The world’s electricity consumption will increase dramatically due to:
– increased world population
– increased demand in the U.S. and other developed countries
– increased demand from developing countries, such as China
and India

Every energy source has advantages and disadvantages.
Do you know what they are?
Let’s test your Energy IQ…
![Page 17: The 4 Es of Energy Environment, Economics, Efficiency & Education Energy Education for Upper Elementary Students (Gr. 4-6) Brought to you by.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649de45503460f94adb30e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Climate, Climate Change, and Global Warming What are the differences?
• Climate – the condition of the atmosphere at a particular location over a long period of time (from one month to many millions of years, but generally 30 years).
• Climate change - any significant change in measures of climate (temperature, precipitation, or wind) lasting for an extended period (decades or longer).
• Global warming – average increase in temperature of atmosphere near the Earth’s surface and in troposphere, which can contribute to changes in global climate patterns.
![Page 18: The 4 Es of Energy Environment, Economics, Efficiency & Education Energy Education for Upper Elementary Students (Gr. 4-6) Brought to you by.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649de45503460f94adb30e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Climate is Warming at a Faster Rate Than Expected
“Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now evident from observations of increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global average sea level.”
(UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 2007)

Effects on Our Planet
• Increased fresh water stress.• Extreme drought or rain will affect food
supply.• Erosion and flooding in coastal areas will
result in ‘environmental refugees.’• More intense storms.

What is being done?• Technological advances
resulting in more efficient equipment and processes.
• Modest increase in fuel efficiency standards for vehicles.
• Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS).
• Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI).
![Page 31: The 4 Es of Energy Environment, Economics, Efficiency & Education Energy Education for Upper Elementary Students (Gr. 4-6) Brought to you by.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649de45503460f94adb30e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
What can we do?
• Purchase ENERGY STAR lighting & appliances.
