“The earth, water and the air are not a gift to us from our parents but a loan from our children.” ---Anonymous

Energy resources have transformed human lives and lifestyles. Energy resources have allowed for human achievement and ambition to move from the potter’s wheel, farmer’s plough and the weaver’s loom to space missions and robots among others. However, the modern world looms in the shadow of a severe energy crisis: the result of unsustainable and inefficient use of energy resources.

Unsustainable and inefficient energy consumption threatens the very basis of life as we have come to know it. In the face of the increasing scarcity of energy resources it is imperative that we launch a committed, concerted and cumulative effort towards holistic energy use habits and sustainable consumption patterns.

Energy conservation most importantly means that conservation becomes an all pervasive habit, an everyday philosophy and practice that aims to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, adoption of energy efficient lifestyles and fostering innovations in green and clean energy technologies.

D&NHPDCL invites suggestions, guidance, comments from citizens, self-help groups, environmental organisations towards developing Energy Conservation as a habit towards an energy secure future.

If we just look back and reflect upon the lifestyle followed by our ancestors, we would find a lot of ideas: 1. Early to rise and early to bed (we will max best use of sunlight from 6:30am and we will switch off lights early at night - around 10 or 10:30pm) 2. Cultivate the habit of walking (keeps you healthy & provides the last mile connectivity necessary for public transport) 3. Cooking for whole family together ensures most efficient use of LPG 4. Growing plants for ensuring fresh air

निम्न दो कार्य हैं जो थोड़ी समझ के साथ किए जाएँ तो ऊर्जा और पानी का संरक्षण बहतर तरीके से किया जा सकता है: 1) अपनी गाड़ी धोते समय एक बाल्टी पानी का ही उपयोग करना, ना की पानी का पाईप लगाकर बहते पानी से गाड़ी धोना क्योंकि पानी का पाईप लगाकर गाड़ी धोने से बहुत सा पानी व्यर्थ हो जाता है । 2) दिन के समय घर या कार्यालय में खिड़की से परदे हटाकर प्राकृतिक रोशनी में काम करना जिससे की कमरा रौशन करने के लिए कृत्रिम ऊर्जा का ना के बराबर उपयोग हो ।
