Previously we mad a podcast explaining in one minute how to save energy, however, writing the tips down and providing a short explanation can be helpful too.
Here are some tips to help the students of Golden Garden Elementary School to save energy.
1- the most important thing is to turn off the lights when they are not needed. Turn off your room lights,your bathroom lights, the living room or any other room you are not using.
2- When there is sun, open the curtains instead of the lights because some people just keep the light opened day and night and this is not good. Moreover, the natural light will brighten your room better and will give it another feeling to it.
3- Don’t use the air conditioner a lot in the winter because air conditioners release some toxic gases that harm the environment and make the Ozone hole bigger which increase the global warming.
4- Governments should use more solar energy since it is available most of the year in UAE.
5- Using rechargeable batteries is better than using disposable batteries.
6- Use energy saving light bulbs.
7- Open the windows to renew the air in the house instead of using the AC.
These are 7 tips on saving energy that we believe that children can start applying them at home, and with the help and the support of the parents at home, and the teachers at school, the students will be on the right path to secure a better environment.
