Every day a lot of energy is wasted lights are left on in
houses and the heat or A.C. is up really high this is really bad for the
environment and needs to stop. It takes 16 times more energy to make an aluminum
can to recycle it. Lights use about 20% of all the energy in the U.S. Each
person in the U.S. uses about 2500 gallons of oil. To provide enough energy for
1 house in Mexico takes about 66 pounds of coal. The junk mail an American
receives each day could provide enough energy to power 250000 houses. Ask your
self is this really necessary we don’t have ever lasting energy and we’re
wasting it is that what you want to happen.
You
don’t totally have to stop using energy but here are some reasons to cut down
on your usage. Recycling one aluminum can can save enough energy to power a
computer for 3 days. Turning of the lights in 1 room can save 2 pounds of
pollutants. Energy efficiency can also save jobs in 2010 it saved 830000 jobs
nationwide. With energy efficient light bulbs you can save 30-80% on energy
bills. By using the recourse we yours for energy could be wiping it of the
earth for millions of years. You may have a habit of using energy and it may be
hard to get out of it but you can at least make a little difference.
You
may be wondering how can I help here’s how. Shut of the lights in unoqupide
rooms. Close the shades so you don’t have to turn up the heat or A.C. Turn the
heat down and put on another layer. When you leave the house make sure the heat
or A.C. and lights are of. Make sure the refrigerator is not open for to long.
Tell your friends to help out too! That’s it that’s all it takes to help the
earth.
Don’t
worry it’s not just you trying to help I am to we all should try! I shut of the
lights and heat or A.C. when I go out. I make sure the refrigerator is not open
for too long. I put on a sweater instead of turning up the heat. In the summer
I do everything I can so I don’t have to turn up the heat. I try to convince my
friends to help out to. It’s not hard it doesn’t take 100 people you can do it!
As
a kid I worry about my future and the future for others and what happens to it.
We only have a limited amount of the material we use for electricity image a
world without electricity! It would be Horrible we all need to help. We all
need to work together to help save the environment and the world around us!
