What are some ways that can be used for energy conservation?

Energy can be conserved in many ways. As a student you
could easily adopt the following ways:

Do not leave
electric appliances running when they are not being used. This would include putting off
the lights and the air conditioning when you leave a room. Switching off your computer
when you are not using it. Many appliances we use now can be put in a state of stand-by,
but it should always be kept in mind that this only reduces the energy consumption. If
you're not going to be back for a fairly long period of time, it is best to switch off
the device entirely.

Try energy efficient ways of travel
like using public transport. If you use a bus instead of your car you will save a lot of
energy. If that is not an option, you could try
car-pooling.

Always recycle instead of throwing away things
as waste. It takes a much lesser amount of energy to produce plastic and metal when
products containing them are recycled than when they are originally
produced.

Many agencies now-a-days provide ratings that
indicate how energy efficient appliances are. Choose those which are more
efficient.
