What energy-saving actions can we take to help our planet?

Day by day the Earth has been deteriorated by the human actions, one of the principal actions is the energy consumption. I think that each person can help to decrease this problem, just if any person turns off the light of any room when they are not using it, will help to reduce the energy consumption, also it is useful if are turned off the appliances when they are not used. Maybe if just one person do that won’t help too much, but if each person raises awareness and makes this simple actions in their daily life it will help a lot, also they will receive less charges of energy consumption and will help our world.

Also I think that one important action that we could do, would be reduce the use of the car and ride on a bicycle or walk in the street, this action will help to not contaminate the planet but also to keep us healthy.

Just making simple actions, each person can help to preserve our world.
