Creating Better PowerPoints

POWERPOINTA picture is worth a 1000 words,

so why do students still use a 1000 words?

Air Pollution• The U.S. uses fossil fuels to generate more than 2/3 of its

electricity. 51% is generated with coal, 15% is generated with natural gas, and 3% is generated with petroleum.

• In 1999, electric power plants produced approximately 2.2 billion tons of carbon dioxide, 12 million tons of sulfur dioxide, and 7 million tons of nitrogen oxides.

• The average coal-fired power plant is only 1/3 efficient, meaning 2/3 of the energy in the fuel is wasted.

• The average fossil fuel-fired power plant was built in 1964, long before the Clean Air Act began requiring pollution controls.

• Of the largest 1000 fossil fuel-fired power plants in the U.S., 77% are not subject to pollution controls under the Clean Air Act's New Source Review requirements.

• On average, power plants that are subject to New Source Review requirements emit much less sulfur dioxide per megawatt-hour of energy produced.
