Team,

Some questions to research before our debates this week:

1. What is the history and background of your energy source? What is the future of your resource?
2. How sustainable is your source? Under what conditions, and what impact on society?
3. How invested is society (infrastructure, finance, political) in the success or failure of your resource?
4. If your resource could be developed or altered in some way, how would you do it?
5. If you were emperor of the world, and wanted to create a sustainable planetary energy system, how would your resource fit into this?
6. If you were the owner of vast investments in your resource, how would you interact with society?
7. If a wealthy investor approached you, how would you promote or justify the use of your resource?
8. What are the weaknesses of your resource? Impact on society, pollution, scarcity, sustainability, etc.
9. How would you defend the use of your resource over all others?
10. How does your resource compare to other renewable or non-renewable resources?
