Maximizing Renewable Resources: Where and When to Use Solar Power
Use this interactive from Climate Central to learn about using renewable resources effectively to reduce the contribution of fossil fuels to climate change. Students explore how the availability of sunlight to provide solar power varies between regions. In the accompanying classroom activity, students rigorously analyze data and compare trends. Students consider the broader implications of solar power, including financial constraints and alternative renewable resources.
