There are different forms of energy. Most of the energy used today in homes and industry comes from fossil fuels. Coal, oil and natural gas are all fossil fuels. They are called non-renewable because it takes millions of years to make or renew them. So, we must reduce the amount of non-renewable fuels that we use.
We need to find other forms of energy that will never run out . These forms of energy are called renewable. Examples of these are energy from the sun and the wind. Water is another renewable source of energy. It is called hydroelectric power. Nuclear energy is also a clean renewable source of energy. However, it is dangerous. It is important that we all save energy.
Here are things you can do to save energy at home and help stop Global Warming!
Change a light: Changing one regular light bulb for one compact fluorescent light bulb will save 150 pounds of carbon dioxide a year. Drive less: Walk, bike, etc.., You'll save one pound of carbon dioxide for every mile you don't drive.Recycle more: You can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide per year just by recycling half of your household waste. Use less hot water: It takes a lot of energy to heat water. Use less hot water by washing your clothes in cold or warm water . Finally , Plant a tree: A single tree will absorb over 1 ton of carbon dioxide in its lifetime!
