Space travel is the most exciting adventure for humanity, but in an irony of history we may stop ourselves from going into space the more we do it. With every rocket launched we are creating a deadly trap for mankind. The video "End of Space - Creating a Prison for Humanity" is a resource included in the Space sciences topic made available from the Kurzgesagt open educational resource series.

Much of the general population believes that the energy sources we depend on are perpetual. While people believe that energy use is the culprit for environmental damage, they are not aware of the methods and principles by which energy conversion devices operate. This course will provide you with knowledge and information on the main operating principles of devices/appliances in common use and will help you in making energy efficient and economical choices. The objective of the course is to expose you to energy efficiency in day to day life in order to save money and energy and thereby protect the environment. I hope the information in this course will help you become an environmentally-responsible individual of this Global Village.

Paul Andersen explains how humans have consumed energy through history and may consume energy in the future. Sources of energy have included food, animals, wood, wind, coal, oil, and natural gas. However non-renewable energy source eventually lead to an energy crisis as supplies go down or prices go up.
Paul Andersen explains how energy flows in ecosystems. Energy enters via producers …
Paul Andersen explains how energy flows in ecosystems. Energy enters via producers through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. Producers and consumers release the energy from food through cellular respiration. An explanation of gross primary productivity and net primary productivity are included.
Is Energy and GIS your passion? If so, Energy Industry Applications of …
Is Energy and GIS your passion? If so, Energy Industry Applications of GIS provides students with an in-depth exploration of the complexities of siting decisions in the electricity market. The course introduces a variety of siting challenges that confront the energy industry and its customers and neighbors but focuses on the siting of electrical transmission lines. The course also provides hands-on experience with a common decision support technology, ArcGIS, and considers how the technology may be used to facilitate public participation in siting decisions.

EME 801 provides a broad introduction to global markets for crude oil and refined petroleum products, natural gas, and electric power. A major goal of the course is to help students understand how market design, market institutions, and regulatory structures affect firm-level decision-making in the energy industries and ultimately, how these decisions affect the functioning of energy markets and the prospects for alternative technologies.
Paul Andersen explains how the law of conservation of energy applies to …
Paul Andersen explains how the law of conservation of energy applies to both energy and mass. Einstein showed that mass and energy are equivalent and that the amount of energy contained within matter can be calculated using the famous equation E=mc^2.
Energy policy sits at the crossroads of science and policy. And now, …
Energy policy sits at the crossroads of science and policy. And now, energy and climate policy are inextricably linked; the policies we choose have very real consequences for our climate. This intersection of science and policy is chaotic and bustles with activity motivated by various competing (and conflicting) interests and factors. We must understand the motivations driving them and bridge the divides between our reliance on fossil fuels and our need to transition to less carbon-intensive and renewable alternatives. While the science and math behind these problems is often fairly straightforward, the politics and behavioral changes are not. Come stand at this busy intersection with us as we navigate toward progressive climate policy alternatives at all scales of governance!
The best form of energy available to the world is energy reduction. …
The best form of energy available to the world is energy reduction. In this video Paul Andersen explains how energy conservation and energy efficiency and be used to decrease energy during peak demand. Tiered and variable pricing, as well as sustainable design are also discussed.

Students experiment with an online virtual laboratory set at a skate park. They make predictions of graphs before they use the simulation to create graphs of energy vs. time under different conditions. This simulation experimentation strengths their comprehension of conservation of energy solely between gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy
In Activity 5, as part of the Going Public step, students demonstrate …
In Activity 5, as part of the Going Public step, students demonstrate their knowledge of how potential energy may be transferred into kinetic energy. Students design, build and test vehicle prototypes that transfer various types of potential energy into motion.

This tracking sheet from Energy Star will track your energy use, cost, and intensity, as well as greenhouse gas emissions. This tool also allows you to customize your energy intensity metrics to fit your strategy. The resource, "Energy Tracking Tool v. 1.2" included in "Lesson 5 Electrical Devices Load Estimation" is a part of "Unit 06 Load Estimations and Calculations" included in Energy & Sustainability ES - Course 3.
In this video Paul Andersen explains how energy can be transferred from …
In this video Paul Andersen explains how energy can be transferred from one system to another. In a closed system the energy can be transferred as either work or heat. Thermal energy transfer is know as energy transfer through heat. During energy transfer the energy of the entire system is conserved.
