When we save energy, we also save money. For it reduces the demand for fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas. Such fuels form non-renewable energy sources. So the more we use them the less there is to go around. If we depend solely on them we will reach a point where we will go energy-bankrupt. This is why a lot of research is being done on alternative sources of energy which are also renewable. For instance, wind and solar power are renewable. The sun and the winds are always part of our life. And they are abundantly available in many countries. Also, such energy is clean energy which does not emit carbon dioxide, the main culprit in global warming. Today there are many energy-efficient alternatives for all kinds of appliances. So we have the power to make better choices for reducing our consumption of energy. There are many ways to conserve energy. Instead of using incandescent bulbs, we can use compact fluorescent bulbs. They use only one-fourth the energy of the former. Instead of taking the car of every occasion, we can walk. We could also buy smaller, fuel-efficient cars instead of big gas guzzlers. We should try to avoid the use of plastic by buying reusable products instead of disposable ones. We should recycle as much as possible.
If a nation is truly serious on conserving energy, it should actively work with other nation to save energy.
