 * __**Green Chemistry - Use Less Energy** __

 Green chemistry helps us understand and gain knowledge about the greener choices we can make to reduce the impact of human’s technological expansion on the environment. One of Green Chemistry’s main principle is using less energy which we don’t usually follow and mostly ignore. Imagine your crossing an urban area, you will see a lot of large buildings puffing out clouds of all sorts of gases. These gases will never disappear, they will always stay in our atmosphere. The question is how to obliterate them? We cannot get rid of these gases because they are in our atmosphere but we can prevent more from entering. Our world uses unthinkable amount of energy, we need to reduce the usage of energy in our daily lives. This goal can be carried out from some amendments in our industry, home and sources of transportation.

**Improving the Industry:**

 Businesses around the globe have an ultimate goal of making a profit. In this process the society gains products and services that are essential and useful in their life. However the producers and consumers don’t put into consideration if the production of this product has used immense energy which is disadvantageous to the environment. A more beneficial option for these companies is to make technologies which aren’t harmful to the environment or human health. They should consider recyclable and renewable resources which is are better substitutions for fossil fuels which will run out eventually. Following these goals will not only benefit our earth but also is advantageous to their businesses. Their expenses will be lower due to their choices of being green.

Reduce energy = lower expenses + increased safety

**Future Goals for Community:**  To continuously use less energy we need to also think about the future and how this will be displayed. First of all when making new buildings we will add good insulation, seal tight windows and doors, putting solar panels and having the direction of the buildings to the south. These are just some requirements of using less energy. All of these suggestions will help prevent unnecessary usage of energy.

**Save Energy At Home:**

**Some ways for us to attempt to be more greener**


 * Turn off electronics when their in no use
 * Don’t keep the fridge open for too long
 * Avoid putting the air conditioner in the sun because it will need to work harder to complete its task
 * Use the microwave- it produces less heat
 * Purchase items that are energy efficient
 * <span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">Think of upgrading your insulation
 * <span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">Use fluorescent light blubs instead of the traditional light blubs
 * <span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">Reuse, Reduce and Recycle

<span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">**Transportation:** <span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;"> Our form of transportation is dependent on cars. However cars are extremely risky to the environment and expensive. People should consider riding bikes, and walking as well. Production of cars and gasoline utilize a lot of energy so therefore individuals should either create new greener vehicles or walk and ride a bike.

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;"> **Consequences**  **<span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;"> of Use A lot Of Energy: ** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 10pt;">As we continuously use energy for our needs, we create consequences that we can’t hide from. Firstly, resources that we use through energy such as coal, oil, gas, or uranium are buried deep in the ground. Taking these resources out from their places damages ecosystems of living organisms, pollutes water and erodes soil. Transporting them to their users creates more pollution. Using these energy resources by creating combustion of coal, oil and other fuels adds carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which may lead to global warming and contribute to acid rain. Though we don’t intend to impact our world negatively, we end up doing in anyways.

<span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">**Conclusion:** <span style="color: #139613; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;"> Overall, it is crucial to make this subject well known so people feel obligated to make a greener choice. People should be aware that there are alternatives that use less energy or are energy efficient. Also, put into consideration all the energy requirements so we are aware of the drawbacks that may harm the environment. All in all, this will help businesses meet the needs of the society with no hesitations, individuals will be careful at home, and transportation will be healthier. Using less energy will also decreases the effect of pollution, global warming, and other human created problems. So remember we aren't compromising, we’re picking a better substitution.
