How Can You Help In Saving The Earth? Part 2

In the first part of this article series, you read how water can be conserved better

. In this article, we will discuss energy conservation. The developed world uses much more energy per person than the developing countries. Think of all the ways, you can conserve energy.

If you have just reached the traffic signal and the light turns red, shut off your engine. Most signals take at least 30-60 seconds before changing. You will save 10% fuel in a month in this way, thus lowering your fuel cost and intake and reduce your carbon footprint. If you have the money, switch to hybrid cars which use part-electricity and part-gas. Switch from big trucks and SUVs to smaller cars which are more fuel efficient. Fuel efficiency should be a very important factor when you choose a new car. Small cars sell most in developing countries because they are most fuel efficient.

In your home, you can do a lot to conserve energy and reduce your light bill. Turn off your lights and fans when no one is present in a room. Don't leave all the lights on before leaving your house. Leaving one or two lights in your living room / hall will suffice to scare that robber away. Don't leave a phone charging away all night long. Don't leave the charger in the socket if no phone is connected to it. Similarly, when your TV is not on, don't leave the switch on. Remove the wire from the socket because even if not on, a little electricity is consumed throughout. Leaving the heater on in sub zero conditions if you are going out for a day is better than turning it off. Because more energy will be consumed in bringing the temperature from sub zero to livable conditions. Similarly where air conditioning is required, keep the temperature on power saving mode.
