The single biggest threat our planet faces today is our massive consumption of goods and resources. The average household spends over $1,900 annually on energy costs according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Experts say much of that is wasted money. Surprisingly, the average home emits more harmful CO2 gas than the average car. Together, Americans use nearly 1 million dollars worth of energy every minute of the day.
Conservation is the most cost effective and eco-friendly solution to reduce demand for our precious natural resources. Whenever you save energy, you not only save money, you also reduce the demand of such fossil fuels as coal, oil, and natural gas. Less burning of fossil fuels also means lower emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary contributor to global warming and other pollutants.
There are two approaches to consider when reducing energy and water consumption. Initially, people can apply methods such as turning off lights when leaving a room and taking shorter showers. These simple methods are free and just take a little effort and awareness. However, the biggest difference can be made with simple and practical home improvements. Although there are minimal costs involved when making these improvements, you have to consider most new Green products are manufactured eco-friendly and last much longer, overall saving you more money!
