Year 10 Energy Crisis Homework

1. What is sustainable energy?

2. http://10unsolvables.org/ Go to this website - have a look at each of the 'unsolvable' problems

a) which is the most urgent problem do you think and why?
b) can you come up with a solution for 1 of them? 3?

  To solve the “unsolvable,” we challenge you to transcend the limitations of your comfort zone. While this site includes Conventional Solutions that are currently being pursued, we also propose Progressive Solutions which are intended to think outside the box. As you read our at times outrageous and controversial solutions and think to yourself “that will never work” or “that’s impossible to implement,” examine the basis of your resistance. Changing public perceptions to internalize the importance of sustainable energy is a catalyst to unravelling the 10 “Unsolvable” Problems.


2. Read the news reports in the fracking blog post below. This is front-line geography where you can have a say, you could influence policy, you could even come up with solutions to current problems. Just because someone else may have done the research, doesn't mean you should be passive,  you can build on it.
