two hands over a fire with the words radiation on it and arrows pointing to them

Have you ever thought about Radiation and how often you are exposed to it? Did you realize it can increase your toxic burden and interfere with your immune system? Common ways we are exposed to radiation are from air travel, drinking water, food, industrial processes and medical procedures. Everyone reacts differently to radiation toxicity and has a different tolerance level of what their body can combat.

the water cycle is shown with different stages in it, including cold water and hot water

Geothermal systems, such as geothermal heat pumps, run on geothermal energy to heat and cool your home. What is geothermal energy anyway? It is a clean, energy-efficient, and renewable source of power that is harnessed from the internal heat trapped beneath the earth’s crust. Although the earth’s core is estimated to be about 10,800 degrees, […]

an energy diagram with the names and symbols for different types of things to see in it

Energy is involved in everything that happens, from the tiniest insect moving one antenna to a massive eruption of a volcano that spreads ash around the globe. Energy is constantly being transferred and transformed. If you use a microwave oven to heat your food, electromagnetic energy is transferred into the food and transformed into thermal energy. When you eat the food, your body turns the chemical energy in the food into a different form of chemical energy. If you kick a ball, you…

a measuring glass filled with water and ice

Students learn about the nature of thermal energy, temperature and how materials store thermal energy. They discuss the difference between conduction, convection and radiation of thermal energy, and complete activities in which they investigate the difference between temperature, thermal energy and the heat capacity of different materials. Students also learn how some engineering requires an understanding of thermal energy.
