REFLECTION QUESTIONElectricityHad you ever heard of biomass technology before you took this challenge? What did you learn that surprised you? Share your new knowledge with your friends!
Kiley Lee 5/09/2024 11:25 AMBefore today, I did not understand what biomass was. I've heard of biomass before and just never took the time to learn about it. Many things that I learned today surprised me, but the most surprising piece of contact that I got were the results and what it is used for. Biomass is used to generate electricity and heat, many governments are choosing to use this in the future, ect. These are all things that I learned and found surprising. -
