When one form of energy changes into another
Heat transfer through waves
What is Radiation
Lakes, rivers, and streams
What is Freshwater
Plants release excess water vapor back into the atmosphere

Weather overtime
The total energy of an object in motion
What is Mechanical Energy
Energy transferred from an area of warmth to a colder area
What is Heat
Why keeping water clean everywhere is important

Energy can not be created or destroyed
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy
Water rises, cools, and sinks-repeats
What is a Convection Current
This would help keep our water sources clean and prevent future problems
What is Reducing Pollution
