Energy conservation is the elimination or reduction of energy we and waste every. Energy is a very important to our society. We use energy for everything transportation, cooking, heating and cooling, manufacturing, lighting, and entertainment. Energy is the vital force powering business, manufacturing, and the transportation of goods and services to serve the American and world economies. Can you imagine what life would be like if we did energy? Every year the United States spends over 500 billion dollars on energy. As you se we use a lot of energy. Accordibg to Doe “The average American family spends more than $1,600 a year on home utility bills.” Energy is the foundation for everything in life. We rely on energy to make our lives comfortable, productive and enjoyable. Energy conservation is most important because it is where we get most of our energy from non-renewable energy sources. Nonrenewable energy sources come out of the ground in forms of liquids, gases and solids. These sources include, nuclear, natural gases, and coal. They are considered nonrenewable because they cannot be replenished in a short period. Actually, it can take thousands of years in order for them to reproduce themselves. As of now, crude oil or (petroleum) is the only naturally liquid profitable fossil fuel. In addition, natural gas and propane are normally gases, and coal is a solid. If these nonrenewable run out they will become to costly to harvest then humans would have to use other sources for energy. Scientist believe that coal, petroleum, natural gas, and propane are all fossil fuels because they where formed from non living factor such as buried remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago. A final non-renewable energy source is Uranium. One would think Uranium is a fossil fuel, but it is not. Uranium is a
