How do we use energy?
We all use a lot of energy. At home, we use electricity to light our houses, cook our dinners, wash our clothes, power the tv, dvd and play station. We use energy to heat water and keep our homes warm.
In school we use energy to keep us warm in winter, to light the classrooms and to use the computers. We also use energy in the form of petrol when we are driven to school or to the shops.
How can we save energy?
