“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.

In many cities of india ,markets are off on sundays ,due to this people bound to do shopping on weekdays in evening/night ,and requesting local govts to allow shops to open for late hours ,which means extra energy consumption ,for whole nation uniform guidelines to be issued for opening shopping markets on sunday s this will be great contribution for saving electricity demands .

Respected Sir, ‘Games or outdoor Sports’ for more than four decades or so are being played under ‘flood lights’ at night. This practice of playing games after sunset started purely for ‘commercial interests’ and has now become very popular the world over.Games or Sports can be played during daylight as was done in the earlier times. Can we not adjust our lifestyles a little bit to save precious natural resources (electricity etc.) Best wishes & regards, Rajkaran Singh Bhatti 9780005656

I also suggest the use of cycles be promoted bigger areas of the road be kept for cyclists and more bogies be added to Delhi metro so that more and more people use public transport.It would not only save time and energy but save fuel as well.

I suggest that government must immediately look in the issue of increasing traffic and vehicles in Delhi.It is a serious problem not only is it causing serious air pollution and noise pollution but also traffic damns and the problem of inefficient energy usage goes without saying.An easy and quick solution to this can be imposing heavy taxes on buying more than two cars per family and promote car pool.The govt. can make it mandatory for all medium and large scale companies to provide transport.

It is easier said than done, installing solar panels is costly proposition and once the solar light fades during night when the electricity consumption is high leads to ineffective usage. Changes need to be made at the grass root level, LED bulbs are still out of reach for the citizens of this nation as one bulb with 20W may require more than 100 rupees, there should be a uniformity in pricing so that its affordable to everyone procuring LED's. Providing subsidies will again have tax burden
