No matter how we make electricity, it takes up space. Coal requires mines, and plants to convert it into electricity. Nuclear power takes uranium mines, facilities to refine it, a reactor, and a place to store the spent fuel safely....
Geothermal energy is a reliable source of energy as it is not dependent on weather conditions like solar and wind energy. Geothermal power plants can operate 24/7 and have a high capacity factor, which means they can generate electricity at a high percentage of their maximum capacity. How doe...
How do bacteria help plants grow? How does solar wind affect the magnetosphere? Why do plants develop phytochemicals? How would planting trees most affect the water cycle? How does fruit help flowering plants reproduce? Why is there no secondary growth in herbaceous plants?
Ways of balancing out the carbon emissions that a school still makes include planting trees and plants that take in CO2 as they grow. Ysgol Bro Dinefwr Secondary School in Wales has promised to run entirely on renewable(可再生的)ener...

The gothic-inspired Victorian conservatory is a period design characterised by its rounded bay front and apex roof with a ridge running along the top. This conservatory, once the preserve of wealthy-individuals who used them to grow exotic plants, can today be customised using clear glass panels...
However, if floating solar panels continue to grow in popularity, they could have an enormous impact on the environment. Some research shows that, if just 30% of global reservoirs were covered with floating solar panels, they would generate enough energy to power 62,000 cities – twice the am...
Thermonuclear reactions release solar energy into space. When solar energy reaches the earth, it has a number of different effects. It helps to heat our planet, grow our crops and provide a source of light. It is at this point where we can harness solar energy for other purposes such as ...
The beaver possesses a number of unique features that help it survive. Its stocky body helps to conserve heat, which helps it endure harsh winters and cold water. Beavers have exceptional orange front teeth with a special coating. As in other rodents, these teeth grow continuously, and they ...
Leaves are important to plants because it is where photosynthesis primarily takes place. Foliage comes in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. They capture sunlight and convert it to simple sugars for the plant to use as energy for growth and function. Plants also produce oxygen ...
