Energy Resource Plan As the power bill is nearing to be three times as much as it has been‚ one thing on every household’s mind is‚ how are we going to conserve energy? Conserving energy is more than just “saving the planet”. It is preserving earth for future generations‚ your kids‚ your grandkids‚ and your lineage. We need to treat the earth like a precious family heirloom that is nearing its breaking point. There are two categories of energy: renewable and nonrenewable. Renewable energy comes

Did you know that the United States alone has used ⅓ of the world’s resources? We are overusing natural resources and action needs to be taken to address this problem that is becoming more life-threatening over time. Overpopulation is a crucial factor in this problem. Natural resources are provided by the environment; they support life and satisfy everyone’s needs‚ but not the environment itself. The way that resources are retrieved and used is unacceptable and very harmful to our environment; the

conservation is also important because consumption of nonrenewable sources impacts the environment. Specifically‚ our use of fossil fuels contributes to air and water pollution. For example‚ carbon dioxide is produced when oil‚ coal‚ and gas combust in power stations‚ heating systems‚ and car engines. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere acts as a transparent blanket that contributes to the global warming of the earth‚ or "greenhouse effect." It is possible that this warming trend could significantly alter
