Planet Earth becomes small because the number of inhabitants is increasing every day. It would not be a problem that natural resources are not limited, and people are still unaware of the nature power and everything that offers but therefore threatens.
We are used to take from nature more than we need, and often instead of thanking, we are abusing her fortunes, polluting water, air and soil. Of course, not all people are the same so even the awareness of individuals about the importance of nature conservation is not the same.
The average Earth’s surface temperature has increased by 0.9 ° C for the last hundred years and the rate of temperature increase has almost doubled in the last 50 years. Also, due to ice melting, the sea level has increased by 17 cm. On the other hand, the average level of CO2 over the past five years, is higher than it has ever been recorded in the last 420 thousand years.
Developing environmental consciousness is the easiest in concrete examples. Did you know that the standard storage temperature of frozen food is -18 degrees, and if you set the temperature by 1 degree below, you can increase energy consumption by up to 5 percent? Note that! This is just one little trick how you can be energy efficient.
“Every day, people are increasingly faced with the consequences of long-term efforts to enrich the environment and adapt to their needs. A man changes the composition of the atmosphere daily by combusting fossil fuels, deforestation, agricultural activities and other activities. However, it is still possible to prevent the consequences to ensure sustainable development” – warned experts from the Bosnia Energy Efficiency Project.
The planet we lived on does not have unlimited resources, and it we need it in every aspect of our lives. Sustainable energy efficiency is an opportunity to direct all energy users on the application of energy-efficient measures to create positive habits when it comes to rational use of energy. Every contribution is important and all together lead towards the same goal – clean planet Earth for our children.
