IDEAS TO SAVE ENERGY
By: Harper Hamburg
WHY DO YOU WANT TO SAVE ENERGY????
Well if we save energy, then we will have a better life. we wouldn't have to deal with any pollution so we could only breathe in air that is good for us. Next if we save energy the world will be cleaner. All grass would be green and everything would be perfect. And lastly, if we save energy, we could make/save more money. the less fossil fuels we use the better, which means that the more renewable resources we use, the happier we are.
SAVING ENERGY IN OUR HOMES!!!
We could save energy in many ways in our home. One way is to put solar panels on your roof. Therefore there is not pollution and very inexpensive.Also putting solar panels will reduce the demand for fossil fuels. The less fossil fuels used, the better. Next when we wash clothing, to make sure that the washer is full. If it is not full then we are wasting a lot water. Next for the dryer. are you drying your clothing just to make them warm? if you are then STOP. You are wasting a lot of electricity. Instead, on warm days, hang your clothing outside to dry. That doesn't just reduce the amount of electricity, it also allows you to wash more loads at one time.
SAVING ENERGY IN OUR SCHOOL!!!
One way to save energy in our school is to use solar panel like any other place. They will give us free electricity with a little cost to install them. Next we could recycle more, instead of throwing away paper, why not recycle it. That way we could save trees so we can breathe more and not breath in the polluted air. Also, if you recycle a plastic bottle, then take off the cap so that they don't hurt animals. If the animals get hurt then someone will find a way to protect them and that causes energy to be wasted. And lastly, if we are on a bus to go to somewhere (a field trip) then we need to bring less buses. if we bring a lot then the gas will pollute the air then we can't breathe.
SAVING ENERGY IN OUR COMMUNITY!!!
We could reduce the amount of gas used in cars. If you are driving somewhere and you stop for gas when your tank is only at half, then you are just wasting the gas. THE GAS HAS ANOTHER PURPOSE AND ITS NOT JUST FOR CARS. So instead of stopping every time your tank is at half, stop when it is at 1/4 or below. Therefore there isn't a lot of pollution and we can use the gas for other reasons. Next we could reduce the amount of gas stations. In Justin there is a lot. We have 4. Justin is a little area and we don't need gas stations right next to each other
