Saving energy
- People need to save energy because resources are limited and population is growing, causing pollution. This puts stress on the planet's finite systems.
- Ways to save energy include walking, biking, taking public transit instead of driving, recycling, turning down the thermostat, installing insulation, using energy-efficient light bulbs, and switching off lights and electronics when not in use.
- Small changes like taking shorter showers, only running full loads of laundry and dishes, and only boiling needed water can also help reduce energy usage. The most sustainable energy is energy saved.
Save environment
The document outlines an environmental policy for an organization that focuses on:
1. Conserving energy through reducing usage and keeping the campus clean.
2. Properly disposing of waste in an environmentally friendly way such as burning or dumping.
3. Using biodegradable and recycled materials where possible.

Ecological Footprint Presentation
Rebecca and Alex calculated their ecological footprints using different online calculators, with Alex's footprint being larger at 6.4 hectares compared to Rebecca's 5.2 hectares. They both kept daily logs of environmentally-friendly actions over two weeks which showed they both regularly engage in sustainable behaviors like recycling, using reusable items, and choosing more energy efficient options. However, Alex travels by air more frequently than Rebecca, contributing to the difference in their footprints. To reduce her footprint further, Rebecca plans to buy more local foods and use her car less, while Alex aims to take public transit more often and eat more local, less processed foods.

Home energy saving tips
Lighting accounts for over 10% of energy bills, but switching to compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) uses 50-75% less energy and lasts 10 times longer than conventional bulbs. Washing full loads of clothes and dishes and keeping appliances clean also saves energy. Heating water makes up 13% of bills, so using low-flow fixtures, fixing leaks, lowering the thermostat, and insulating water heaters helps reduce costs and benefits the environment.

Pallavi global warming
Global warming is a steady rise in Earth's temperature caused by increasing levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere from human activities like burning fossil fuels. Burning fossil fuels for energy, transportation, manufacturing and other uses releases carbon dioxide, increasing atmospheric concentrations. This traps heat and warms the planet. Effects include rising sea levels from melting ice sheets and glaciers, which could displace millions of people globally. Deforestation also contributes by reducing areas that absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Solutions proposed include using more efficient light bulbs, appliances and vehicles, generating energy from renewable sources like solar power, and planting trees.
Carbon footprint -
The document discusses the greenhouse effect and ways individuals can reduce their carbon footprint. It explains that greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide trap infrared radiation emitted from the Earth's surface, preventing it from escaping to space and warming the atmosphere. This enhanced greenhouse effect leads to global warming. The document then provides tips for reducing individual carbon footprints through choices related to transportation, home energy use, appliances, travel, weddings, offices, and more. Key greenhouse gases and their sources are also identified.

Global warming is caused mainly by human activity like burning fossil fuels which releases greenhouse gases and traps heat in the atmosphere. It is defined as a rise in temperatures due to gases like carbon dioxide from human sources. Effects include changes in rainfall, rising sea levels, and impacts on humans and wildlife. Individuals can help by reducing what they use, reusing items, and recycling to lower greenhouse gas emissions and conserve resources. Recycling programs exist for items like shoes, electronics, and phones to reuse materials and reduce pollution.
Ways to protect the enviromenment

Implementing some or all of these small changes can collectively make a positive impact on the planet. The document encourages sharing these ideas with children to help instill the importance of reducing, reusing and recycling resources for future generations.
Save enrgy
Saving energy provides benefits like saving money and helping the environment. It helps preserve natural resources like coal, oil, and gas that are used to generate energy. Considering a product's entire life cycle, from production to use to disposal, can help reduce energy usage. For example, lighter packaging for products like water bottles requires less fuel to transport. There are many ways to save energy at home, such as reducing heating, using more efficient light bulbs, and choosing products with lightweight packaging. Lighter objects also reduce the energy needed for transportation.
