2000-watt society

A 2000-watt society means that each person would use only 2000 watts of energy at any given time. This is the same amount of energy that an average electric dryer or microwave uses in an hour. To reach this goal, many changes would need to be made such as using more energy efficient appliances, using renewable energy like solar and wind power, and using electricity and heat more efficiently. All these changes combined can help reduce each person's energy use, helping the environment and saving people money too!
