“The earth, water and the air are not a gift to us from our parents but a loan from our children.” ---Anonymous

Energy resources have transformed human lives and lifestyles. Energy resources have allowed for human achievement and ambition to move from the potter’s wheel, farmer’s plough and the weaver’s loom to space missions and robots among others. However, the modern world looms in the shadow of a severe energy crisis: the result of unsustainable and inefficient use of energy resources.

Unsustainable and inefficient energy consumption threatens the very basis of life as we have come to know it. In the face of the increasing scarcity of energy resources it is imperative that we launch a committed, concerted and cumulative effort towards holistic energy use habits and sustainable consumption patterns.

Energy conservation most importantly means that conservation becomes an all pervasive habit, an everyday philosophy and practice that aims to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, adoption of energy efficient lifestyles and fostering innovations in green and clean energy technologies.

D&NHPDCL invites suggestions, guidance, comments from citizens, self-help groups, environmental organisations towards developing Energy Conservation as a habit towards an energy secure future.

I have a idea to generate power from moving trains with similar principles of wind energy. ie by fixing wind mill or wind fans at every window of each coach. Conversation system is build in coach.

I suggest a big debate on loss of energy due to absence of efficient mass transport system and government policy to achieve this.The traffic Jam consume how much diesel,petrol,A.C. power units in cars should be debated and a policy should come out to reduce purchase of car vehicle by individual at the same time how to develop efficient mass transport system.

1) Make mandatory to all Municipality's to use Meter System for Drinking Water 2) Make mandatory to all Municipality's, Nagarpalika's & Nagarparishada's to make rules for all new residential housing's compulsory water harvesting and solar water heater systems 2) Ban all traditional bulbs used in households and reduce taxes on LED bulbs 3) Strictly use LED bulbs in all Government offices 4) Promote use of Solar electricity through all corporate offices, industrial areas for their office work

Dear PM Sir, please direct our scientists in premier institutes like IISc to: 1. Assign their students projects related to making Solar energy adoption cheap and efficient. 2. Collaborate with their colleagues from around the world, paricularly Israel and Germany, to identify and solve technical challenges in Solar energy adoption

LED lamps have a lifespan and electrical efficiency that is several times better than incandescent lamps. If Suppose Everyone in one City uses the LED bulbs, More than 10 Village will be get a power for 24hrs. Government should reduce the taxes for such materials which helps the country to save a lot. FINALLY, Save POWER, Save ENERGY, Save MONEY and Vanish DARK NIGHTS

As we all know floods and droughts are common nd it has not got a stop. After these calamities come, we take step for rescue. But what if we could take initiative before hand. There r railway lines, mobile towers etc. 2 remain connected. What if we all (first tehsils, villages, then states,then cities) get connected through underground pipes which r kept close and opened only when flood or drought comes. This will make a balanced water supply and no one ever will face water prob in whole country

There are many aspects for the conservation of energy, major is utilisation of solar energy; solar street lights all over the country; next would be use of bio gas and avoiding maximum usage of LPG and electric heaters, where as regarding vehicles usage of petrol & diesel couldn't be controlled, just we could suggest the people of urban areas for the maximum utilisation of travelling under metro trains; upto little extent we could save fuel

To save electricity , i think government can convoy their message to every citizen by making new and innovative ads in tv and newspaper . Like in tv whats the use of ad when it comes in late night . The ad should come between cricket matches .. people in india see cricket matches a lot so having a ad at that time can make a impact . Secondly its the woman who lives in the house most of the time and she prefer to watch serials so we can have energyefficiency ad at the break time of serials also .

See all the small steps contribute to big change . So for water conservation , we can have one press tap .ie if u press the tap water will come and as u release it will stop coming .. i think we waste a lot of water while brushing and washing .. so this change can save a lot of water .This tap is long lasting and cheaper tgan the censor tap .
