There are great advances happening in the field of alternative energies and fuels. The processes of development, research and manufacturing take time, however. And, the cost will be high for these choices until the technology grows to the point where eco-friendly sources of energy can be mass produced for everyone to have. In the mean time, taking the foot off the gas pedal of life could help save the planet more than you know.
Safe and Clean Energy Alternatives:
Until we can all have safe and clean energy, here are some changes we can make to stop the continued push of gases into the atmosphere.
- Slow down the car. Cars that go 55 MPH, even when the speed limit is 70 MPH, tend to use less fuel. Less fuel burned means fewer emissions in the air.
- Leave on time. Rushing to this meeting or this appointment is the number on reason why people speed so leave earlier than you have to even if that means throwing your hair under a hat. See above point.
- Take your time in the park. Staying outside longer means using less electricity in the home. While consumers may not see it, electricity can be created from some of the least eco-friendly processes on Earth.
- Carry your mobiles with you and walk. Portable solar chargers are very cheap and all your mobile devices can fit into one backpack. As you are walking from here to there, you are getting exercise, reducing fossil fuel emissions and charging your equipment with that solar backpack without using electricity. How is that for safe and clean energy usage.
