SAVING eNERGY
The first and the foremost place where you need to save energy is the place you live; your "home".
Every thing you use , use it efficiently.
The reasons for saving energy in your home are twofold. First, and foremost, it benefits the entire energy grid. If everyone is consuming less energy, less power needs to be created, which, in turn, is generally better for the environment. The second and more selfish reason is that it saves you money and everyone loves to save money.
And when you know you are in India where lacs of villages are still under darkness; you need to think upon.
Save every "bit" of it.
For saving energy @home you can have a quick search on "Efficient ways of saving energy" or something like "top 10 tips on saving Energy" or maybe some other phrase relative to your search.
Our main point of discussion on saving energy is due to the energy crisis being faced all over globally and to be specific , the developing countries like India.
Taking up electricity(without any formal data here..) we already know that in contrast to the bright glowing cities of skyscrapers we also have on earth certain parts which still are dark.We need to save energy on our part so that its possible to reach out to those places and provide them with the infrastucture and the facilities.
Talking about water, Indian municipalities are facing the challenges of acute water shortage, increasing population and rising power tariffs. Presently only about two-thirds of the urban population has direct access to clean, affordable and reliable water services(think of the rural poulation!!!).
Lack of reliable water supply affects urban populations in multiple ways, having detrimental health impacts and significant social and economic costs. Energy costs constitute up to 60-70 percent of an Indian municipality’s total cost of pumping water to its residents. This financial constraint, coupled with inadequate or antiquated infrastructure and the lack of adequate managerial and technical capacities, greatly limits the ability of municipalities to improve water services. More efficient water delivery systems can translate into measurable energy savings due to reduced pumping requirements. Yet, most municipalities are unaware of the benefits available through water and energy efficiency.
These challenges are further compounded by the lack of state level policies to encourage municipalities to implement water and energy efficiency measures to improve service and reduce costs.
Thus, we can see how individual energy saving is important for us not being selfish and also safeguarding our own future(a bit selfish now...!!)
Happy Energy Saving!!
