A good start to conserving energy would be to unplug the computer when it is not in use. If you are shopping for power supply computers look for ones labeled HE, high efficiency in terms of conservation of energy. Another labe to look for is 80 PLUS which verifies that the energy efficency has been tested.

1. Start
2. Control Panel
3. Power Options
4. Then choose an option that saves the most power.

How can you overcome the use of energy in our environment?
That sounds as if you want to stop using energy. That's not possible - we need energy to survive. We (humans) can reduce our use of energy, and we can try to reduce the environmental impact of the energy we do use.
How can we reduce the energy we use?
Why would you want to reduce the use of solar energy? Everyone else is trying to increase the use of solar energy. It is not as if using it will cause us to run out of sun.

Is it vital to reduce energy use?
maybe
How do solar panels and solar cells reduce your use of energy?
They don't reduce your usage, it is just another source of energy. It can reduce your energy bills paid to the utility companies.
What are 2 ways recycling can reduce energy use?
Recycling reduce the energy of processing raw material and made into the product, it also reduce the energy required for the waste management process.
What sort of energy does a computer use?
Solar energy
Why is consumption important?
Understanding energy consumption will help you manage how you use energy. With better use of energy, you can reduce your utility bills.
How does solar energy reduce the use of fossil fuels?
Most countries burn fossil fuels to generate electricity.If they used solar power to generate electricity, thenThey would not have to use so much fossil fuel.Solar Energy itself does not reduce the use of fossil fuels. But the use of solar energy should hopefully reduce the need of fossil fuels to create energy, so therefore the more we can use solar power as an energy source instead of fossil fuels, the more we reduce the use of fossil fuels.
When you use electricity from the water will it reduce the amount of water?
No you will not reduce the amount of water, when you use electricity from a 'water driven' power station. You only use the energy of 'falling down' (potential energy is lost).
What simple measures can you take to reduce the environmental impact of using a computer?
The simple measure that I can take to reduce the environmental impact of a computer is switching it off when it is not in use.
Does a virus use energy?
maybe cause the computer uses energy
