Lorax Question
Walk
Think, Pair, ShareWhat are natural
resources and why are they so important?

Notes Let’s get
this done!
I. Earth’s Resources – resources that the Earth
provides for us.A. Natural Resources –
natural material that are used by humans.
Natural Resources
1. Examples – water, petroleum, minerals, forest, and animals
2. Most resources are changed and made into products that make people’s lives more comfortable and convenient
3. Energy we get from many of these resources, such as gasoline and wind, ultimately comes from the
sun’s energy!
The sun is the POWERHOUSE Would not have: 1. Trees2. Wind 3. Fossil fuel4. Plants 5. Animals
Extra
A. A renewable resource is a natural resource that can be replaced at the same rate at which the resource is used.
1. Examples: Trees and water
II. Renewable Resources
A. A nonrenewable resource is a resource that forms at a rate that is much slower than the rate at which it is consumed.
1. Examples: Coal, Petroleum, and natural gas
III. Nonrenewable Resources
Non-renewable does NOT mean that it doesn’t renew.
It means the rate at which it renews itself is SLOWER then the CONSUMPTION
CAUTION
A. Energy Conservation –
most of the natural resources that provide us energy are nonrenewable resources
IV. Conserving Natural Resources
What can you do to help conserve our natural resources?
1. To conserve natural resources, you should try to use them only when necessary.a. Turn the faucet on only to rinse you toothbrush b. Turn lights off when you are not using themc. Make sure washing machines are full before you start themd. Ride a bike, walk, or take a bus
B. Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle1. Recycling – is the process of reusing materials from waste or scrap. (Examples: Newspaper, Aluminum cans, plastic, and cardboard)2. Though energy is required to recycle materials, it takes less energy to recycle than it does to make new ones.
C. Conserving resources also means taking care of the resources even when you are not using them
1. Keep lakes, rivers, and other water resources free of pollution
1. Group Visuals-How is each person going to present their project
2. Individual activities
