Importance of
Energy
Conservation
Energy conservation is crucial for a sustainable future. By reducing
our energy consumption, we can decrease our environmental
impact, save money, and contribute to a cleaner, more efficient
world.
Defining Energy Conservation
1 Efficient Energy Use 2 Reduced Energy Demand 3 Sustainable Practices
Using less energy to perform Lowering the overall amount Adopting habits and
the same task or function. of energy required for daily technologies that minimize
activities and operations. energy waste and promote
long-term sustainability.
Environmental Impact of Energy Use
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Resource Depletion Pollution and Waste

Energy production, especially from Overuse of non-renewable energy Energy generation and
fossil fuels, contributes to the sources like oil and natural gas can transportation can lead to air,
release of greenhouse gases that deplete these resources, harming water, and soil pollution, as well as
drive climate change. the environment. the generation of hazardous waste.
