Saving
energy .-
Saving energy is the most effective way to reduce polluting
emissions of CO2 (carbon dioxide) into the atmosphere, and thus
halt global warming and climate change. It is also easier and
faster way to achieve this. For every kilowatt-hour of
electricity to spare, will avoid the emission of about one
kilogram of CO2 in the thermal plant which burns coal or oil to
produce that electricity. In addition, saving energy has other
additional benefits for the environment because it avoids, acid
rain, oil spills, air pollution, radioactive waste, risk of
nuclear accidents, proliferation of atomic weapons,
destruction of forests, destruction of natural landscapes,
Desertification. In Hostel Mary Tere have set the challenge of
having to illuminate the entire low-energy light bulbs that
little by little we are going to change, while in the common
areas are available switches with limiter time to avoid the
lights are lit unnecessarily. All these advantages translate
themselves into a better quality of life, especially if energy
consumption is linked to improving the services it provides us
with (light, heat, movement ...), ie it is improving energy
efficiency. Saving energy is also a duty of solidarity.
