Conservation of energy

resources
Energy conservation is a very important part of energy planning and
its management. Earth can be grouped into renewable and non-renewable
sources of energy.
Sun, wind and water are the renewable energy sources. The sun can
provide us with a continuous source of energy that does not cause pollution.
Hence, we can use the solar energy that comes from the sun in our life. The
wind can be used for pumping water, moving yacht and spinning windmills and
the water can produce hydroelectricity. We should use these energy sources
to avoid the cause of pollution. If we use the non-renewable sources of
energy profusely, it will cause the serious pollution.
Conserving energy is important to prolong the use of non-renewable
sources of energy and to ensure that the existing sources are used widely
and thriftily to avoid wastage. It not only saves energy resources for future,
avoids wastage, but controls environmental degradation and pollution.
In our everyday life, we must use and manage the energy resources
efficiently. Instead of using incandescent bulbs, we can use compact
fluorescent bulbs. They use only one-fourth the energy of the former and
last 8-12 times longer. Instead of taking the car for every occasion, we can
walk, take the bus or train, or join carpools. We can also use soybeans to
produce biodiesel. Biodiesel can be blended with regular diesel fuel or used
all by itself to fuel tractors, buses and trucks. These types of energy are
friendly to our environment and help us reduce our dependence on fossil
fuels such as oil and coal, which cannot be replenished.
For our beautiful homeland, we must do some efforts to save the
energy sources of the Earth.
