Document Summary
Materials that can be substantially managed to ensure they are available for future generations. Photosynthesis: 6co2 + 6h2o c6h12o6 + 6o2. Water from soil and air and carbon dioxide to produce glucose and oxygen. Water is a critical resources that all biorenewable resources need. Only require it temporarily and gets returned back in the environment. Trees: 2. 2% of the tree comes from the nutrients (generalization) Oil is the #1 source of energy in the world, not biorenewable sources. The us uses about 10% of biorenewable resources. The us uses the most wood more wood used than al, steel, and plastic combined. Only thing used more of is cement/concrete. Greenhouse gases and their impact on the atmosphere. Dry wood = 1. 0 acts as baseline. Emulates agriculture over a longer period of time. Class topics: population and consumption, team building with project, making choices about materials, biomaterials basics. 5: bioenergy, bioproducts, biocomposites, trends and innovations.
