Energy is everywhere but we can see that harnessing this energy is both difficult as well as costly. If we continue exploiting our non-renewable resources they will soon be exhausted. The need of the hour is to better utilize our existing resources.

Energy conservation is the most economical solution to the shortage of energy as it reduces the consumption of energy.  

We as citizens should minimize the use of energy resources through conservation methods like using of public transport, by switching off the lights, fans, televisions, computers when not in use, using energy saving devices and keeping the lights in our homes dust free.

Each one of us can make a difference by not wasting energy. Energy saved is energy generated.
