The Purpose We
Do This Topic
■ To be aware of the
energy crisis
■ To develop people with
the concept of energy
saving
What we can do
1. Be Aware of Energy Crisis
2. Take action!
Fossil Fuels
Coal
• Transportation
• To generate electric power
Oil
• Transportation
• Plastics
• Medicines
• Clothes
Natural Gas
• Hot water
• Transportation fuel
The Drawback of Fossil Fuels
1. Fossil fuels take millions of years to make.
2. Fossil fuels are not renewable; they can't
really be made again.

environment.
2. Nuclear energy provides
reliable electricity and is an
economical energy source.
Crises of Nuclear Energy
Safety Concerns
◆
Radiation
◆
Reactors
◆
Accident
The fire and radiation
leaks was not
brought under
control till 9 days
after the accident.

It means
“Nuclear
waste is
often just

Greenpeace
wants to halt
the spread of
nuclear power
across the
