Comparing Energy Use

 Developing countries are those that are poor in terms of their

economy and whose citizens have a low standard of living.

 The image below shows the income levels for countries in the

world. Answer the following question in your science journal:

  • How do you think energy use is different between people in

low-income countries and those in high-income countries? (give at least 3 differences)

High income Upper-middle income Lower-middle income Low income

Energy Spenders: China and U.S.

 China has only recently

surpassed America in energy consumption by 4%

 China consumed 2.252

billion tons of oil equivalent in 2009, the U.S. consumed 2.170 billion tons.

 Prior to 2009, the U.S. has

been the largest energy consumer since the 1900s.

Energy Consumption vs. Population

 In 2007, the U.S. was

the leader in energy consumption.

 In 2007, the U.S. had

5% of the World’s Population, but consumes 30% of the energy resources.

Energy in Industrialized Nations vs. Developing Nations

A citizen of an advanced industrialized

nation consumes in 6 months the energy that has to last a citizen of a developing country his entire life.

Conserving Energy Starts at Home

 Special photography

records thermal radiation, and offers clues to where energy is being wasted in this older house in Connecticut.

 Red and yellow patches

indicate escaping heat, while new double-pane windows appear cool blue.

 By sealing in warmth, the

windows cut heating costs, which can account for up to half a family's energy bill.  Where is this house losing

the most heat from?

 What can they do to

conserve it?

Energy Management Plan

 Managing energy is like managing your budget. You should

follow three steps:

1.

Collect information that tells you what your money (or energy) is being spent on.

2.

Evaluate the information and decide where you can reduce costs or replace with a better solution.

3.

Make a plan that you can follow to reduce your costs.

Think back to the money you have spent this week. Include all costs! List them in Part 1 of the Money Management page.

Hidden Costs in Energy Consumption

 Can you think of ALL the ways energy was used to allow

you to wash your clothes in a washing machine?

Direct: Energy to run the machine

Hidden: energy spent in shipping the machine to your house or local store. Hidden: energy spent to pump water to the machine Hidden: energy spent to heat the water used to wash the clothes. Hidden: energy spent to create the metal and plastic on the machine Hidden: energy spent to produce, package and ship the laundry soap.
