What's the big deal with energy
efficiency?
Saving energy can, at times, be a
discouraging endeavor. We may find
ourselves faced with a choice of
sacrificing a measure of convenience
or comfort in order to achieve
substantial energy savings. Other
times we may become frustrated when
our efforts are seemingly negated by
the wasteful practices of others. It
is these cases in particular where
we should try to focus on why so
much emphasis is put on energy
conservation in the first place.
With fossil fuel prices soaring to
record highs, population explosions
adding demand to our already
strained electrical grids, and a
little situation called climate
change, we not only need more energy
to meet our existing demand, but
more sustainable sources of
electricity. Renewable energy is a
different story altogether though.
The Green Campus Program is
dedicated to the belief that the
cheapest and cleanest source of
energy is CONSERVATION. |
