Ecology and energy saving problems

1 May 2025

In today's world, energy conservation and ecology problems are becoming more and more relevant. The use of energy saving technologies not only helps reduce electricity costs, but also to reduce the harmful effects that a person has on nature in the process of their life, taking into account their increasingly increasing needs. A person is starting to appreciate the environmentally friendly natural materials, clean water, pure air. People have started building wooden houses and equipping them with wooden furniture, buying swallowed water in stores, using systems in houses and cars that clean and hydrate the air. A man began to think about the air he breathes, what water he drinks and how in the future it affects his health and his life expectancy.

Energy saving and ecologyEnvironmental pollution is negative changes in the biological, physical and chemical characteristics of the atmosphere, water, soil, negatively affecting human life, animals and plants that give off the resources of the planet as a whole. The main sources of pollution are thermal power plants, companies in the petrochemical industry, ferrous and non -ferrous metallurgy, the production of construction materials and chemical industries, cars and air transport. Only power plants cause major damage to the environment. Even the usual electric lamps that we use to pollute the environment of our home, this applies to daylight lamps containing lead mercury and phosphorus. The use of LED lamps for lighting considerably reduces the harmful effects on nature, electricity consumption when using such lamps ten times, and harmful radiation during operation is minimized, also freely release harmful substances in the environment and with subsequent elimination. The most effective way to reduce harmful emissions in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, is to improve production methods, transfer and subsequent elimination of energy. Each year, the number of greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to CO2 is around 44 billion tonnes. The introduction of new technologies very respectful of the environment will reduce the number of these emissions to 25 billion. Thus, the thermal power plants, which use units combined with steam and gas turbine, have an efficiency of up to 60%, while the efficiency of traditional TPPs on average is 46%. To this, the work of power plants with combined installations is more effective and also differs by a smaller number of harmful emissions. A significant contribution to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions can make the use of environmentally friendly technologies in construction, in particular, the use of environmentally friendly building materials.Modern air conditioning systems, heating water and heating, the increase in thermal insulation can reduce the amount of CO2 equivalent by around 2 billion tonnes, and the use of LED energy saving lamps will allow electricity considerably and much less obstructing the environment. A person with the help of the latest achievements of technical progress in the field of energy conservation, effectively using renewable energy sources respectful of the environment, by correctly using waste, by transforming it into biogas, electricity or other derivatives, is able to minimize the harmful effects on nature. At the rescue of the planet, it is important to carry out the threat of inaction, to assess the possibilities provided to us with technical progress for its salvation. It is necessary to take decisive steps in this direction now.
