Renewable and Nonrenewable Resources

The student is a city utility engineer tasked to research the depletion of coal and a possible viable resource replacement option that they will then present to the city council (e.g. oral, Power Point, Prezi, debate, etc.). They must identify the potential impacts once it is depleted and the logical options for energy replacement. They must identify the different possible sources of energy production (hydroelectric, wind, geothermal, solar, natural gas, petroleum, nuclear, etc.). They must choose a replacement resource, justify their choice, and justify why they did not choose at least three other sources of energy. They must include sustainability of their choice, renewable or non-renewable energy, and geographical availability.
