Seeing Energy in Everything
... Convection is the transfer of heat between molecules of a liquid or gas as they move in a circular pattern due to changes in temperature and density. For example, when you turn on a lava lamp, the wax at the bottom heats up and begins to melt. As the temperature of the wax melts it becomes less dens ...

Alternative energy
Alternative energy is any energy source that is an alternative to fossil fuel. These alternatives are intended to address concerns about such fossil fuels.The nature of what constitutes an alternative energy source has changed considerably over time, as have controversies regarding energy use. Today, because of the variety of energy choices and differing goals of their advocates, defining some energy types as ""alternative"" is highly controversial.In a general sense, alternative energy as it is currently conceived, is that which is produced or recovered without the undesirable consequences inherent in fossil fuel use, particularly high carbon dioxide emissions (greenhouse gas), an important factor in global warming.
