First of all‚ the sustainable development of our earth is started from the least. Consequently every human in this world should ask himself a question‚ what I can do for making the clean earth. One of my offers is turning off the extra light in every corner of our home. This will help to decrease the amount of CO2 burned out to the atmosphere insufficiently‚ if the only

Energy conservation refers to reducing energy consumption through using less of an energy service. Energy conservation differs from efficient energy use‚ which refers to using less energy for a constant service.[1] For example‚ driving less is an example of energy conservation. Driving the same amount with a higher mileage vehicle is an example of energy efficiency. Energy conservation and efficiency are both energy reduction techniques. Even though energy conservation reduces energy services

This will likely cause disruption to agriculture and ecosystem‚ such as accelerated melting of glaciers and flooding of low-lying countries (Boyle‚ 2004). Moreover‚ excessive consumption of energy in industrialized countries account for about 70 per cent of carbon dioxide emissions for the past 50 years which also disrupts the stability of ecological processes worldwide (Centeno‚ 2009).

The term pollution can be applied when the composition of something has been modified by the presence of one or more substances that either it cannot be used for a specific purpose or it is less suitable for that use than it was in its natural state. Nature pollutes water with leaves that fall off the trees and decay‚ animal waste‚ and oil seepages

Has nuclear energy gone too far beyond its necessity?: Opposing Nuclear Energy Many people around the world ask themselves what are the disadvantages of adopting an alternative solution to solve the consumption of global nuclear energy? Based on what we have experienced through events with major disasters and the aftermath of many casualties‚ it has summed up to result in having failures outgrowing expectations. Therefore‚ global nuclear power usage is to be opposed due to the fact that it comes
