Check understanding

  • Name natural resources used for energy and fuels (coal, oil, gas, wind, sun, water)
  • Describe how extracting and using these resources affects the environment (pollution, habitat loss, climate change)
  • Distinguish between renewable (wind, solar) and non-renewable (fossil fuels) energy sources
“Can your child explain where petrol, electricity, and gas come from — that they come from natural resources like oil, coal, wind, or sunlight — and how using them affects the environment?”
