Energy conservation refers to the practice of using less energy by being more efficient and reducing unnecessary energy consumption. It involves making changes in how we use energy, whether in our homes, businesses, or industries, to minimize waste and lower energy usage while still achieving the same desired results.
For example, turning off lights when not in use, using energy-efficient appliances, or improving insulation in buildings to reduce heating and cooling needs are all forms of energy conservation. The goal is to save energy, reduce costs, and lessen the environmental impact caused by excessive energy use.
