The document discusses energy usage, noting that it is becoming more acute and expensive. It analyzes the causes of increased energy usage such as modern lifestyles, weather patterns, and human demand for convenience. This puts financial burdens on individuals and relies heavily on non-renewable natural resources. The document then outlines a process flow that includes identifying the original problem of high energy usage and costs, analyzing causes and effects, and exploring engineering contradictions and solutions following the 40 inventive principles.

1. Energy Usage
-Getting more acute
-More expensive

2. Benefit or Impact?

Electricity generated by
using non-renewable
natural resources
Lack of Saving Environment
Knowledge
High cost of non-
renewable natural
recourses
Insufficient and non-
renewable natural
resources

5. Engineering Contradiction
If education of saving environment
knowledge is provided, then there will be
reduction in energy usage and cost but more
time and cost is needed to implement
education and obtain the result.
