We live in a developing country that is currently in the process of running out of all of its non-renewable and finite resources. Since the very beginning of the conception of Pakistan, we've been hit with challenges after challenges. Conserving our finite resources is the only way until we figure out a way to generate electricity through a renewable resource.

Conserving electricity is not a one person job. It is something that has to be done on a larger scale by spreading awareness regarding the scarcity of these resources. If we all play our parts in saving electricity then we can have the way for an energy efficient nation and at the same time we can control our electricity expenses. 

Following are some of the ways in which you can conserve electricity in a smart manner and if others around you are able to join you in this mission then you can be on your way to bring about a major change:

 

1.   Unplug or switch off chargers when they are not in use. This is a big one for this day and age. The main reason for that is that there are two types of chargers that can be found in every house. A phone charger and a laptop charger. Most people leave their laptops plugged in almost all day. Even when they are fully charged. That causes a lot of electricity wastage. It is better to charge your laptop and then switch off the charger until the battery doesn't drain out completely. 

 

2.   Usage of LED bulbs or lights that are very energy efficient. These days more and more people are switching to LED lights and that is a a very good sign which means that people are starting to realize the importance of conserving electricity even if their main aim is to reduce their own electricity expenditure. 

 

3.   Now this is an old one but it is the most useful one. Make it a habit to switch off all electrical appliances that are not in use when you are leaving a particular room. If every individual in the house makes this their regular habit then it is surely going to bring about a major effect. 

 

4.   With changing technology, many common electrical appliances now come with energy saving options. It is better to invest in those in a timely fashion so that you are able to conserve electricity. 

These four steps are your starting guide to conserving electricity and reducing your electricity bills too along the way. How great would it be if we could play even a small role in saving our non-renewable resources?
