Energy consumption

Energy consumption is the amount of energy that is used by something. Energy is necessary for power and electricity, which we need every day for things like heating, keeping the lights on, and powering our phones, computers, and other electronics. Whenever you use something that needs electricity, you are consuming energy. We get energy from sources like coal, oil, and natural gas, as well as renewable sources like wind, solar, and hydroelectric power. All energy that is used affects the environment and has an effect on the amount of pollution in the air. To reduce energy consumption, people can make sure their lights and electronics are turned off when not in use and that their heating and air conditioning systems are set at an optimal temperature.
