SCIENTRICITY: ENERGIZING SCIENCE CLUBBERS FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY

 

Energy is crucial for our survival. We depend on it for many of our daily activities. We need it to light our houses and to make electrical appliances work. We need it to operate cars, jeeps, buses, and airplanes. Without energy, factories and communication facilities cannot function.

The world’s population is multiplying, causing considerable strain on the world’s energy supply. A growing population leads to greater demands for energy. When the demand for a reusable energy is not met, a crisis occurs. And definitely, this would greatly affect the living of the present and future generations. So, why won’t we dare to extend our help in the sustainability of energy?

As a student, a science clubber, and as an end-user of energy, I dare to put the ball in my own court. I can help solve our problem in energy scarcity by using energy wisely. Conservation is the primary solution for this problem. Conservation does not mean non-use of resources, it simply means wise and efficient use of resources. By turning off the electrical appliances when not in use and by participating in the eco-friendly activities such as tree planting and the implementation of the 3R’s (Reuse, Reduce, Recycle),I can do my share in conserving energy.

Energy conservation requires the combined efforts of the different sectors of society – government agencies, the private sectors, and individual citizens. To all the science clubbers out there, let us energize ourselves for energy sustainability. We are young and we must care for the future or younger generations.
