Why Save Energy?
1. Energy use and carbon emissions are directly connected. Reducing energy use means limiting the number of carbon emissions in the environment. And since carbon emissions play a significant role in climate change, reducing your energy usage is incredibly essential.
2. Air pollution - All cities will soon turn into places like New Delhi if we continue down this path of burning fossil fuels for energy. In fact, if we keep down this track, it’s possible that in the future, planes will not be able to land because it is so hazy and the pilots cannot see. In fact, United refused to land their planes in New Delhi for part of 2017 because it was too hard for their pilots to see the runway. Air pollution caused by humans is the reason that biodiversity is disappearing at 1000x the normal rate.
3. It’s a win-win for you and the environment. The less you use energy, the less you have to pay for it, and you don’t have to force power plants to burn fossil fuels!
