Problems associated with energy production and power are studied in this teacher's guide to better understand the impact of man's energy production on the environment, how he consumes energy, and in what quantities. The resource unit is intended to provide the teacher with basic information that will aid classroom review of these problems. Topics focus on solar energy, man and energy, energy efficiency, fossil fuel consumption and pollution, nuclear energy, geothermal energy, superconductivity, magnetohydrodynamics, and waste recycling. A bibliography is included. This work was prepared under an ESEA Title III contract for the project "Broad Spectrum Environmental Education Program." (BL)
