| 1. Independent from foreign oil | | | | By conserving energy you will also be saving money. |
| The question is why is conserving energy important? | | | | We can use mother nature to supply us with energy. |
| First lets talk about crude oil. United States have | | | | Use solar panels to catch the rays of the sun to give |
| about 30 year reserves of oil. The world demand for | | | | you energy to power your home or business. We |
| oil is getting greater. China and India economy is | | | | can also use geothermal heating and cooling to save |
| growing and more people are using cars so oil | | | | us thousands each year. Geothermal heating and |
| companies is having an hard time to keep up with oil | | | | cooling system uses the water that is beneath the |
| demands. The U.S right now is the number 1 oil | | | | earth and compress it into hot or cold water to |

| terrible for our economy. | | | | cost our always more than conventional energy but |
| 2. Save our environment and health | | | | in the long run you will be saving thousands. |

| oxides, carbon dioxide and other harsh waste | | | | these bad pollutants in our body, and to save money |
| compounds. These pollutants are very bad for man | | | | by using the great alternative energy technology to |
| king. For instance nitrogen oxide irritates the lungs. | | | | produce energy. We can be responsible people by |
