- This photo would be an excellent resource to use in a class energy unit. Class discussion could focus on energy sources needed to produce the electricity, energy consumption habits of countries, distribution of energy resources, global warming and land use issues to name a few.
This world map shows current sunlight and cloud cover. There are also images of dawn and dusk from space and the moon in its current phase.
If you have any photos of energy use or production around the state, country, or world let us know and we can put them on our Web site. Please send them to Sara at swindjue@uwsp.edu.
