CONSERVE FUEL, SHAPE THE FUTURE

Fuel is a substance which is used to produce heat energy through chemical reaction. There is no machine which can works without it today. All are depend on this to run anything from a small home to a large industries. Even from a small screw to a big generator there is a need of it. But today, our India is facing a severe fuel crisis.  
                   In our day to day life, it became basic need of us. Due to it's lack, most countries have to import fuel to meet their needs by spending high amount today. We can say this by seeing the nearest petrol bunks. If we saw them, we can find  long queues of vehicles because there was no fuel to tank up on. It's our time to face the problem of fuel need.  
                   How panic it is? What about our future generations? Their life conditions might be so difficult without these fuel. They have to work hard to do even a small work also. They have to suffer a lot. If it continues like this, there will be no industries which are going to be run in future. Such that we can't get any material even a small thing also because the things which we are using most today like plastic, paraffin wax, computers, cars, pharmaceuticals, etc are getting from the industries only on which fuel is the basic need to get all these. 
                  Fuels like petrol and diesel are also not clean fuels. They cause pollution and increase Carbon dioxide emissions. So we have to stop using fuel highly which is responsible for causing Global Warming.   
                 It's really makes our life tough if we still continue the usage of fuel in large amounts. In order to avoid this, We have to bring awareness on people.We have to turn of our vehicles at traffic. We have to encourage car pooling and have to minimise the usage of applying brakes. We have to use hybrid cars which run both on gas and electricity. Electric cars like the Indian Reva are good choices. Under-inflated tires reduce fuel efficiency. Travelling the least distances by walk or using bicycle is good for health and helps for fuel conservation too. So, Save Fuel, Save Future.

                 Save fuel for better Environment and Health
  

    In today's world fuels are undoubtedly ruling our world.  Our basic needs are Roti, Kapada and Makaan.  And, we need fuel to cook, to manufacture fabric, to produce building material and to build our sweet homes.  So willingly or unwillingly we are dependent on fuels to live.

    We use fossil fuels such as coal, wood, natural gas, Petroleum and its derivatives like petrol, diesel, LPG, kerosene etc.  Since the days of Industrial revolution, there has been a rapid growth and development in the entire globe.  The machines in industries, transport vehicles and domestic appliances all use fossil fuels.  Even though the world adopted electricity as a source of energy, we still need fossil fuels to produce electricity.

    Environment is an essential part of our life.  It includes surrounding water, air, trees, wildlife, birds, minerals etc.  Quality of our life depends on the quality of our environment.  Our health is dependent both on ourselves and our environment.  We need a clean environment to live healthy.

   Last four decades have seen tremendous growth in electric and electronic gadgets and appliances causing the demand for energy to go skyrocketing.  Combustion of fossil fuels results in carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that have negative impact on environment and health.  Overuse of fuels have initiated a breakdown of our ecosystem balance.

     As a consequence air we breathe is polluted with CO2, soot particles and harmful gases.  A large number of people suffer from respiratory diseases.  The local temperatures have risen.  Climatic balance is broken.  Global warming is causing icebergs at the Poles and ice caps on mountain peaks to melt at a faster rate.
 
     Greenhouse gases (fluorocarbons) are depleting the Ozone layer faster than ever before. Ozone layer shields us from harmful Ultraviolet radiation of the Sun.  The holes in Ozone layer mean sunburns and skin cancer from exposure to UV rays.

   Many species of birds and oceanic creatures are getting extinct.  Animals too suffer from pollution.  The balance in Biodiversity has become an issue.  Imbalance in food-chain results in Earth's ecosystem imbalance.

    To live we eat food, drink water and breathe air.  If they are contaminated, then certainly our health is affected.  Comparing in our minds strolling happily on a path in a village and along a busy city road.  Certainly we would want a peaceful and clean environment for a morning walk to the park nearby.

    Fuel and energy saved is as good as produced.  Fuel saved is more than driving away diseases and buying health.  There are many ways to save fuel.  We could use shared or public transport like trams and metros.  We switch off engines while waiting for traffic signals.  We take an exercising walk to nearby places.  We use bicycle not just as a sport, but as a transport.  We use more efficient fuels.  We switch off gadgets and appliances when not in use.  We use green vehicles and latest technology based machines.  Also drive vehicles uniformly at recommended speeds and maintain properly to run at high mileage.

     We need to replace obsolete technologies with the latest. Simply, we could replace the domestic light bulbs by the efficient LED bulbs.  Let's use more efficient LCD and LED computer monitors and TVs in place of the bulky old ones.  Let us use more efficient and silent CNG based engines rather than the traditional noisy diesel engines.  Use of geothermal heat and biomass energies efficiently and cheaply serve our needs locally in the vicinity.  Use of solar boats could reduce pollution of water bodies.

     In rural areas people still use kerosene, wood and tree leaves for domestic cooking and heating.  We need to upgrade their lifestyle so that fuel is saved and environment is saved.

    Wastage of food, water or other materials happens inadvertently.  Reducing wastage indirectly saves fuel required to produce more food and other products.  Induction stoves save on energy needed to cook.  Imagine 10% savings in a billion houses in the world.

    Let
s use less of traditional fuels and use more of clean renewable fuels like solar, wind, tidal, geothermal, biomass, Nuclear, hydro, biofuel and so on.  Then we meet our demands as well as save our environment.  We stay healthier too.  This is what ultimately we want and the mankind needs.  Instead of polluting our location and then searching for a better place to live in, we all live healthier and jollier by saving fuel.
