Energy conservation can be seen around the world. This can be on a large scale such as switching to the use of renewable energy, or a smaller scale like turning the lights off in your room. To clarify, energy conservation is an effort to reduce wasteful energy consumption by using fewer energy services. This is mostly done through changing in behavior to use less service or using energy more effectively. To be specific, a few ways to conserve energy and electricity at home is to adjust day-to-day behaviors, replace light bulbs, and use natural light. Adjusting behaviors does not mean that one needs to purchase energy-efficient products. This can simply be completed by simply turning off appliances that are redundantly being used. Traditional light bulbs use more energy compared to other, certain kinds of bulbs. For example, LEDs use anywhere from 25-80 percent less electricity compared to the traditional light bulbs seen inside buildings. Using natural light such as a candle or sunlight is obviously another energy-conserving method. All of these methods have a commonality of reducing the amount of electricity being used. 

We all know that conserving energy can be a cost-effective way to save money. This is because it can reduce individual utility bills which can be quite a load. However, other benefits of energy conservation prevail. While energy saving can be economically efficient, it can also be efficient environmentally. Increased energy conservation can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants. This reduction can be from direct emissions from fossil fuel combustion or consumption, and indirect emissions reductions from electricity generation. 

All in all, energy conservation can be done by many methods and these methods will help contribute not only economically, but also environmentally.
