Conserving Energy to Save Money According to an article and graph published in The New York Times‚ “About 56 percent of all the energy that is produced in the United States is wasted” (Revkin). With all that energy being wasted‚ Americans cannot afford to waste much more. There are a number of things a homeowner can do around and to their household to conserve energy and save money at the same time. They can turn off unneeded electricity and try other sources‚ such as renewable energy to conserve

Many countries around the world are beginning to switch to renewable energy. Following this example‚ switching to alternative energy in America is a realistic solution to the problems caused by obtaining energy from nonrenewable sources. Fossil Fuels are natural materials

huge debate whether using renewable energy is beneficial to our environment or not. The biggest source of our energy has been sourced by coal‚ oil and natural gasses. Some researchers believe that there are many benefits of using renewable energy and that we should be concerned with seeking environmentally friendly alternatives instead. Not only are these sources harmful‚ they will eventually deplete our natural resources. The goal is to find pollution-free renewable energy that can offer a better
