RE: I want to have a positive impact on the environment !

in ecoTrain3 years ago

Excellent article, really caring for the environment begins with each one of us as you have said, to the extent that we control energy expenditure and that we know the impact of everything we do we can see the change.
Few people reach this level of consciousness, today, I hope children are being educated to be aware of what is happening, and let us not continue to ignore the path to a better tomorrow.
something small like disconnecting a device with LEDs called vampires, if we do it millions of people how much could be saved.
conclusion the change begins with each one of us

Yes !

One of the thing we shouldn't forget is that even if everybody was doing efforts to limit their water and electricity use at home, the global use wouldn't fall so much because industries are really consuming a huge amount of both of them.

I remember one day I was working in a meat and pathé and to clean one room we had to use water to remove every piece of meat on the ground and then fill it with a hot soapy water. It was probably more than 300 liters only for 80m² and at least 2 times a day. And there is 2 more rooms and one of them is even bigger.

One of the big issue that needs to be solved is energy saving in the industry. I'll once again use the same exemple but tesla always makes it. If I remember well, they said that in two years they changed many features to save energy and that returned in 50GWh saved in two years. That's enough to power 14000 houses for a year. Even if that means that they use a lot of electricity, this is a huge amount saved and to my mind every factory should to to do the same.
