What are the pros and cons of energy conservation?

Answer 1

Energy conservation is a hot topic nowadays. It is known that the temperature of the earth is rising every year. This is due to the fact that CO2 is emmissed into the atmosphere. Also heat is emmissed into the atmosphere. Being that heat is a form of energy, one can easily see why we should conserve our energy.

Nowadays researchers are working on sustainability. This means that processes are changed to reduce heat emmission and make use heat more effective. This means that part of the heat can be reused, which is an another benefit for heat conservation.

The downside of heat conversation is an economical one. It costs more money to make more sustainable processes and to have less heat emmission. This is why the sustainability process is going slowly and our earth temperature is still increasing

Answer 2

pro: doesn't pollute the earth doesn't cost anything, easy to do, can save you money and can stop CO2 emissions. Government all over

cons: requires cooperation what do you do with "electricity hogs" ? they will take up all energy.You will have to drastically change ur lifestyle, but most people dont like change. Simply a short term way out of our energy crisis. We are just basically handing all of the energy crisis over to the future generations

Answer 3

Higher energy efficiency usually mean lesser cost to pay and thus higher profit and marketing competitiveness.

The disadvantage, usually come from misconception of energy conservation. Increase energy efficiency sometimes was done wrongly by trading safety or production reliability with higher energy efficiency. Sometime it was not carefully compared between cost of investment and cost saving. It must consider the performance, safety and profit-cost on any improvement plan including efficiency improvement.

Answer 4

There are no cons to saving our planet.

Many con games are out there that promote energy conservation. Solar panels, for example, offer zero energy savings and cost more energy then they ever provide. This means that putting solar panels up actually hurts our environment, but feels good.

REAL energy conservation, based in logic and science is always good.
