Two Ways to Conserve 1. Technology We should replace lights with more energy efficient lights 2. “Human Factors” We should teach and encourage the users of the facilities to conserve energy. We should provide them the tools and instructions.

WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO USE ENERGY WISELY AND SAVE MONEY.

WHERE DOES THIS ENERGY (POWER) COME FROM? Electricity Gas (natural –fossil fuels) Kerosene Wood/Coal The Sun (solar) Biogas (from farm waste) Wind (windmill) Water

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS USE COMPACT FLUORESCENT LAMPS (CFLS)

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS Compact Fluorescent Lamps last 10 times longer than regular bulbs; Give the same amount of light; and Use only a quarter of the electricity regular bulbs use.

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS TURN OFF LIGHTS WHEN YOU DO NOT NEED THEM.

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS TURN DOWN THE RADIO AND TV. THE LOUDER THEY ARE THE MORE ENERGY THEY USE.

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS TURN OFF THE RADIO AND TV IF NO ONE IS LISTENING/ WATCHING.

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS CONCENTRATE LIGHTING IN READING AND WORKING AREAS AND WHERE IT IS NEEDED FOR SAFETY.

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS WHEN YOU NEED BRIGHT LIGHT USE ONE LARGE WATTAGE LAMP INSTEAD OF SEVERAL SMALL ONES.

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS TRY TO DO HOMEWORK AND SOME CHORES DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS WHEN YOU NEED NO ELECTRIC LIGHTS.

ENERGY CONSERVATION TIPS COOK BY THE FASTEST METHODS POSSIBLE, E.G. BY MICROWAVE OR PRESSURE COOKER.
