Question

What factors may influence a person's choice to conserve energy?

Answer 4

Health, location, cost, business environment, climate, season of the year, medical needs, initial output, family members.

Answer 5

Mine came when I actually traveled to other countries and found out how much other people go without EVERYTHING while we just basically p**s it away by buying everything disposable as a consumer driven society.

Interestingly enough Tokyo was surved and said they would be the least likely country to change their consumption for the enviroment. How can people still be like this?

Kids dying because they dont have drinking water, WHole families living off of a liter of water a day for all their needs, people having their one meal a day of just grains, ......... it just gets to be to much when your out in it.

Answer 6

I use energy as I need it.

I conserve energy by not using it when I don't need it.

-Turn out lights in vacant rooms

-Close curtains on cold nights

-Park the car rather than endlessly drive in circles finding a closer spot.

-Drive at a reasonable rate of knots.

-Turn out the stove when not needed anymore.

Hopefully cost will never be a factor because that will mean that I am poor.
