'Energy saved is energy produced'. Assess the statement.

Conservation of energy is essential because it protects our environment from greenhouse gas emission and also saves valuable resources from getting depleted. If we save energy then only more energy can be produced. It is essential to use nonconventional sources of energy. Following are some measures to conserve energy resources : 

(i) We should try using more and more public transport system instead of private vehicles. 

(ii) Electronic devices must be switched off when not in use. 

(iii) It is necessary to use more power saving devices. 

(iv) Reduce consumption of non-renewable sources of energy. 

(v) If possible solar power should be used to generate electricity. 

(vi) Recycling of goods and commodities can also help to conserve energy

Energy saved is energy produced : 

India is presently one of the least energy efficient countries in the world. We have to adopt a cautious approach for judicious use of our limited energy resources. For example: 

(i) As concerned citizens, we can do our bit by using public transport systems instead of individual vehicles. 

(ii) Switching off electricity when not in use. 

(iii) Using power saving devices. 

(iv) Using non-conventional sources of energy. 

(v) After all “energy saved is energy produced”.
