What are natural
resources?
![Page 3: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living.
• Who makes natural resources?
• Can you name some natural resources?
![Page 4: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Fossil fuels are natural resources.
![Page 5: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Fossil fuels are made out of plants and animals that died many, many years ago…..over 50 thousand years ago. Here is how it
goes…
![Page 6: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Plants or animals die
Bummer, I died!
![Page 7: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Sediments pile up on top of the plant or animal’s body for thousands of years.
![Page 8: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The body starts to rot under all of that pressure from the layers.
![Page 9: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
This takes many hundreds of thousands of years to happen.
![Page 10: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The rotted body starts to decompose and turns into fossil fuels.
![Page 11: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Humans dig into the ground to dig out the fossil fuels.
![Page 12: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
We mine out the COAL.
![Page 13: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
and burn it in our homes for heat or electricity.
![Page 14: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
But Coal creates A LOT of pollution.
![Page 15: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Or we bring it out
in oil wells…..
![Page 16: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Once again to burn it in our homes
for heat or electricity.

But oil creates A LOT of pollution too.
![Page 18: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Or we pump it out as natural gas..
![Page 19: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Once again to burn it in our homes
for heat or electricity.
![Page 20: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
But natural gas creates A LOT of pollution too.
![Page 21: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Plus……it is very expensive to mine
coal or to pump natural gas and oil from the ground.
![Page 22: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Plus……we are running out of
fossil fuels….so we need to find other sources of energy.
![Page 23: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
And once we run out of fossil fuels, we can not get them back again ….
That is why they are called
non renewable resources.
![Page 24: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Can you think of any new resources
we can use for energy???
![Page 25: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Soil is considered a renewable resource because when we use
it, we take the minerals and vitamins out of it.
![Page 26: Natural Resources. What are natural resources? Natural resources are items we take from the Earth to use for living. Who makes natural resources? Can](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f125503460f94c25cdd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Once gone, we must replace those minerals and vitamins with fertilizer….or the plants we plant in that location will not grow strong. They will be weak and not produce much food.
or

Renewable resources are things we take from the earth that we may use up, but we can always
get more of them. Can you name some renewable resources?
• Trees
• Vegetable and fruit plants
• Soil

Inexhaustible Resources are resources from the earth that we can use, but we will NEVER run out of.
Sometimes are called Reusable Resources. Can you name some
inexhaustible resources?
• Water
• Air or wind
• Sun’s energy
