importance of energy in modern world and its conservation? Class 10
Answers
Effect on Future Generations
If we leave aside all these points, the most important reason that we should use our energy sources wisely is related to our future generations. Don't we want our children and their children and so on, to enjoy a better quality of life when they start making their living? Conserving energy is equivalent to saving a good deal of fortune for our kids and their generations. It would be unfair to comment that the human race is utilizing all possible energy sources day in and day out. Unfair because with the population and technology on the rise, the utilization of energy is something which is inevitable. But it is also important to understand that energy must be used only when it is required. If it takes you half an hour to reach your workplace on a bicycle, then take your bicycle and not your car or motorbike, because here you do have an option!
Socio-economic Impact
Energy conservation is important even with regard to social impact on countries and communities. It is certain that countries and communities which have better economic standards are the ones which tend to utilize more energy than others. So, being conscious and wise in the use of energy proves helpful to other countries and communities for accessing the same.
Shortage of Fossil Fuels
Oil is an exhaustible source of energy, which means, once it is used, it is gone. So, what is needed to be mulled upon is, that we are using up the fuel reserves in a voracious manner, ignoring the fact that if the demand for oil gets higher than its supply, inflation would be the immediate effect. It is obvious that when production of a resource becomes lower than its demand, its price shoots up. And everyone is well aware of how terrible high-priced oil can be to the economy.
