In recent years, scientists have been warning people about overconsuming the energy, which has led to a significant issues such as climate change. However, various people still do not transforms their lifestyle or habits. In today’s essay, I will discuss the causes of this problem and how can we address it.
The primary reason why people do not want to change their lifestyle is because they used to accustomed with the traditional way of their living for decades, especially for elderly individuals, who cannot immediately accept the changing such as reducing the energy consumption. For instant, my grandmother is used to live in China for many years; nevertheless, because of some reasons she has to move to Thailand. As you know, Thailand is a tropical country and the temperature usually be high during the summer. Moreover, my grandmother cannot live without the air-conditions, as she cannot adapts with the weather in Thailand yet; we need to open the air-conditions all day. Hence, this is one of the reason why elderly people cannot immediately accept with the changing, as most of them are familiar with their old way of living for almost half of their lives.
On the other hand, there are also some solutions that can address these challenges.
Overusing of energy can cause many problems such as climate change and greenhouse gases, which are the common issues nowadays. Government should declare the consequences of climate change on the online platforms for encouraging all age of people to protect the world. One possible approach is declining the use of appliances that are unnecessary in houses or turn-off the appliances when nobody is applying. Latter on my grandmother deciding to open the air-condition only in her bedroom, and sets the time when using the air-conditioner. As a result, she is doing like this for reducing the overconsumption of energy, which can damage the environments. Although, she cannot directly decrease the energy consumption, she still helps to protect the world as much as possible.
To conclude, reducing the energy consumption is beneficial for our environment, as it can avoid serious impact to our world. As soon as, people start to change their lifestyle and decline the overwhelming of energy consumption we will see less report of climate change on the news in the future.
