Identify three primary types of energy that powers your home as well as all of the homes in your community. You may find this information on your community Web site or the Web sites of the local power companies. For example your community may use electricity and solar panels.
Explain how the sources of energy you identified impact the environment. Consider the following:
Does the use of these types of energy resource have a negative impact on the environment in your area?
Does your community have nuclear waste to dispose of?
Has your community always used these three power sources? If so how do you feel this has impacted the environment over time?
How much of an impact have these sources of energy had on local air and water quality?
Considering the current source(s) of power available determine how much energy your house uses each month. You can find this information on your monthly energy bill. Calculate your annual usage for a year. Using this value estimate the energy consumption for your community. The US Census Bureau is one resource you can use to estimate the number of households in your community. You can use the following formulae for this calculation:
(monthly energy usage) (12 months per year) = (household energy usage per year);(yearly energy estimate for your house) (estimated number of houses in your community) = (estimated yearly energy use for your community)
The following is an example of the above calculation:
52.8 kilowatt hours (kwh) per month 12 months = 633.6 kwh;633.6 kwh 200 houses in your community = 126720 kwh
