Poem

Look Outside, see the trees
Watch the flowers in the breeze
Things won't be like this in a year or two
If polluting is all we do
Seize the night
Seize the day
Things won't always be ..........

Fossil fuels are bad
They are making nature mad
Destruction is near

My Passion for Energy Efficiency

There are many reasons for me being passionate about energy efficiency. A few of my reasons are due to the fact that I want to keep a few extra dollars in my pocket, I want to keep the environment clean, and I want to major in environmental engineering. Who doesn't like to save money? We all like to get more out of our money and becoming energy efficient is one way to save money. Energy efficiency makes it so that you use less energy, which saves you money, and still get the same results in the end. Another reason why i want to become energy efficient is so that we reduce the amount of pollution that is released into the environment. I've grown up enjoying the outdoors and I would like conserve the environment so people in the future to see the same things I saw growing up. I wouldn't enjoy living in a place that is filled with pollutants in the air. Finally, I want to be an environmental engineer in the future, and energy efficiency is one of the main goals for environmental engineers. This is why I'm passionate for becoming energy efficient.

3 Great Reasons for Becoming Energy Efficient

There are many ways you can benifet from being energy efficient. Some people don't realize this but it's true. The top three reasons for becoming energy efficient are:
1. You spend less money being energy efficient- Who doesn't like to save money? Being energy efficient allows you to save money because you lower the amount of energy you use. For example, you would save money on gas if you buy a hybrid car.
2. It helps improve the economy- We would spend less money on fuel, and it also makes thousands of jobs for people to make buildings and other things more efficient.
3. It helps reduce the amount of pollution released- We would need to burn less fossil fuels to generate electricity at power plants and our cars would use less fuel to run. Also, I don't think you would like living in a city covered in smog.
