Energy Efficiency

Awareness of environmental conservation has always been something at the back of everyone's mind. As it is common knowledge that preserving energy will help the planet, enforcing this idea through one's action is something that takes more effort. Wilkes University has done their part in being environmentally conservative by providing recycling stations, motion sensors, and iMacs. However, I agree with the writer of the article, that it ultimately up to the community to make a conscious effort in bettering the environment. Without the participation of others, these attempts of being more energy efficient will be futile. People must do their part in conserving energy whether it being turning off their lights, recycling, or conserving water. If everyone takes a single step towards being energy efficient, as a whole, our community will be able to make a difference.
