International holidays - World Energy Efficiency Day

Modern people are accustomed to thoughtless, irrational energy consumption and rarely think about caring for it Over the past decades, the UN has been calling on people to stop using traditional sources (oil, coal and gas), which contribute to the greenhouse effect and global warming, and to pay attention to alternative types These include the energy of ebbs and flows, wind, water, the bowels of the earth and sunlight The potential for renewable sources is natural processes To raise public awareness about the possibilities of conserving the planet's resources, World Energy Efficiency Day is celebrated on March 5th For the first time, people started talking about the annual World Energy Efficiency Day in 1998 This year, on March 5, the First International Meeting on Energy Efficiency was held in Austria Its increase on a global scale is based on optimizing the production of enterprises in various industries by replacing traditional fossil fuels with renewable sources Another way to achieve high energy efficiency indicators is the construction of buildings and structures of classes A and B, processing industrial waste for recycling Every person concerned about the state of the planet’s ecology can implement the idea of ​​World Energy Efficiency Day Contrary to what most people think, increasing energy efficiency does not mean giving up comfort and reducing quality of life by reducing energy consumption on a daily basis It is enough to be responsible about its consumption This includes the active use of daylight for illumination, LEDs - together with ordinary lamps, and the timely shutdown of electrical appliances One way to show concern for reducing energy consumption is for people to pack up household waste for recycling Responsible consumption involves avoiding driving a gasoline-powered car and choosing other modes of transport such as bicycles and scooters Saving natural resources means switching to using household appliances with energy efficiency classes A, B and C instead of F and G To all motorists who are not ready to switch to bicycles or public transport, in honor of World Energy Efficiency Day not only on March 5, but also on It is recommended to follow certain driving rules throughout the year These include maintaining a given driving pace and avoiding traveling at high speeds, maintaining the temperature in the cabin thanks to air conditioning and open windows at +21°C All this, like timely maintenance and engine inspection, helps reduce exhaust emissions into the atmosphere When purchasing clothes, shoes and interior items, you should choose products made from recycled materials Compliance by each of us with at least one or all methods of responsible consumption will definitely have a positive impact on the ecology and state of the environment This is what World Energy Efficiency Day, celebrated annually by residents of all countries around the world, calls for
