energy conservation

Energy conservation deals with the conservation of different forms of energy in order to maintain the energy efficiency throughout the world.Nowadays all the energy sources such petrol,diesel,coal,fossil fuels etc. are in the verge of extinction .which may result in  massive energy crisis in the future.Energy law states that energy is neither created nor can be destroyed but only trans fer from one form to another.


Some countries employ energy or carbon taxes to motivate energy users to reduce their consumption. As detailed in the book, Green Illusions, carbon taxes can allow consumption to shift to nuclear power and other alternatives that carry a different set of environmental side effects and limitations. Meanwhile, taxes on all energy consumption stand to reduce energy use across the board, while reducing a broader array of environmental consequences arising from energy production. The State of California employs a tiered energy tax whereby every consumer receives a baseline energy allowance that carries a low tax. As usage increases above that baseline, the tax increases dramatically. Such programs aim to protect poorer households while creating a larger tax burden for high energy consumers.
hence the  source of energy are going to be exhausted.So alternative sources for non-renewable energy sources should be introduced .so that low consumption of the fossil fuels ,petrol,etc can be maintained.also, solar energy and hydro power energy should be given more priority.
