[00:08.21]On Energy Conservation
[00:10.95]In recent years, many countries,
[00:14.68]especially industrial countries,
[00:17.61]are faced with different levels of energy shortage.
[00:21.65]Why does such phenomenon occur?
[00:24.70]The primary reason is the increasing demand for energy
[00:29.37]because of the development of modern industries.
[00:33.16]Another important reason is that many people
[00:36.84]tend to ignore that energy reserves in the world are limited.
[00:41.69]For this reason,
[00:43.60]the excessive use and waste of energy is common,
[00:47.52]thus accelerating the exhaustion of the valuable energy.
[00:52.12]In order to ensure that our descendants
[00:55.81]could find sufficient resources to support themselves,
[00:59.67]it is time that effective measures
[01:02.28]be taken for energy conservation.
[01:05.14]Most importantly,
[01:07.24]technologies should be improved to reduce
[01:09.39]the energy usage in industries.
[01:12.81]What's more,
[01:14.03]people should try hard to save energy in their daily life.
[01:18.45]For example,
[01:20.21]the lights should be turned off if nobody is in the room,
[01:23.76]and the air conditioners
[01:26.12]should be set at no lower than 26 degree in summer.
[01:29.23]All in all,
[01:30.98]it is time that people do something to conserve energy.
