Harnessing Energy: Profit and Conservation Together
The shift towards renewable energy sources, particularly wind and solar, is driven by economic viability and job creation, exemplified by states like Iowa and Texas. These energy forms have become the cheapest globally, making them attractive alternatives to fossil fuels. However, prioritizing energy conservation is crucial as it can account for 30% to 50% of the solution to energy needs. By adopting a more frugal approach to electricity usage, the demand for extensive renewable infrastructure could be significantly reduced, promoting a sustainable lifestyle.
