Recently, I saw a documentary of glacial erosion in Bolivia, which in a few years the country is devoid of most of its supplies of fresh water. This happened after speaking, a documentary a couple of weeks ago, removal of snow and ice in Antarctica and glacial erosion in the northern hemisphere. How can the complicated theories of global warming and how difficult it is to make an absolute determination of the truth of these theories, it seems certain that some of theForecast key to this theory can be realized.
So what can we do? First, we must accept that some damage has already been done, because of carbon dioxide (CO2), which we have already pumped into the atmosphere and at one point on the road, the results of this problem must be addressed. Since it can not return what we have already done, then how can we reduce our emissions of CO2 in the future?
My thoughts on this that is one of the largest (andcertainly the lowest cost option), is to take steps to use less energy than individuals. Just think for a moment, if I want to live in the United States, and reduce all energy consumption by half, then-US decrease in CO2 emissions by about a third less than the current value, even if the industry is not nothing nothing. You may think that is unrealistic, reducing energy consumption by half of current demand, but considering that the United States is one of the highest per capita users of energy, this is not yetindeed too far-fetched.
How can we save energy? To find out, we must first of all, look how we use energy. The three major areas of energy use by individuals are as follows:
1. At home
2. In our journey --
3. Not us our recycling
In the latter case, while we have not specifically for use as fuel the waste that anyone can be reduced through recycling and energy to an increase in waste disposal.
Among the firstCase, at home, should be clear that a better insulation in our homes can be an important influence on our consumption of energy at home. The intake intelligent summer and winter temperature levels at home can make a significant difference to our consumption of energy. Our homes offer many different opportunities for energy savings. Please look out for my next "Articles Eco House", where I presented a series of articles on energy saving measures at home.
InThe second case in our way "is' clear that any measures taken to reduce that to burn the number of liters of gasoline per day directly, we reduce CO2 emissions. Less gas in my next article" How can you eat? I will look for ways that we protect our trip more efficient in terms of energy consumption.
In the latter case, the problem is the energy required to dispose of our waste. Note that a large proportion of our waste is incinerated. The alternative to land landfills often worse than anyCase, it was found that cause hazardous gases, which can lead to uncontrolled landfills in the country in the next article I will present the issue of exploitation in "Why recycle address?".
In times of fuel price is now just the time to really work to reduce energy consumption. If you go back to my original assumption that you can go to reduce energy consumption by half, you think of the savings in heating costs. Which must be useful.
If you're like meconvinced that the greenhouse effect is true, then the energy savings you have a win-win situation. They help to protect the environment and save money at the same time.
Happy savings, Simon
