Explain what power companies in your area are doing to reduce dependence on nonrenewable energy sources.
madreJ [45]

Answer

• Driving a more fuel-efficient car to eliminate “gas guzzling”

• Reducing heating needs

• Reducing lighting needs

Explanation

The three best strategies employed worldwide for conserving non-renewable energy resources are Reduce, Reuse and Recycle( 3R’s). Energy users are encouraged to increase reliance on renewable energies such as solar, wind and geothermal to aid in conserving the scarce fossil fuel that remain.

Walking and biking can be used as a strategy to cut down gas guzzling and manage the limited nonrenewable oil resources. One popular way of heating homes is oil heating. However, the conserve the oil, home owners are supposed to put up storm windows and insulate homes including caulking cracks around doors and windows to reduce heating costs. When using natural gas, users can reduce energy wasting by keeping the thermostat at 70 degrees and shutting off heat when not in use.

Why is the earth's lithosphere considered a giant jigsaw puzzle?
Pavlova-9 [17]

The lithosphere, which is the rigid outermost shell of a planet (the crust and upper mantle), is broken up into tectonic plates. The Earth's lithosphere is composed of seven or eight major plates (depending on how they are defined) and many minor plates. Where the plates meet, their relative motion determines the type of boundary: convergent, divergent, or transform. Earthquakes, volcanic activity, mountain-building, and oceanic trench formation occur along these plate boundaries. The relative movement of the plates typically ranges from zero to 100 mm annually.[2]

Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. Along convergent boundaries, subduction carries plates into the mantle; the material lost is roughly balanced by the formation of new (oceanic) crust along divergent margins by seafloor spreading. In this way, the total surface of the lithosphere remains the same. This prediction of plate tectonics is also referred to as the conveyor belt principle. Earlier theories, since disproven, proposed gradual shrinking (contraction) or gradual expansion of the globe.[3]

Tectonic plates are able to move because the Earth's lithosphere has greater strength than the underlying asthenosphere. Lateral density variations in the mantle result in convection. Plate movement is thought to be driven by a combination of the motion of the seafloor away from the spreading ridge (due to variations in topography and density of the crust, which result in differences in gravitational forces) and drag, with downward suction, at the subduction zones. Another explanation lies in the different forces generated by tidal forces of the Sun and Moon. The relative importance of each of these factors and their relationship to each other is unclear, and still the subject of much debate.
