Global Initiatives for Energy Conservation
All around the world, people are teaming up to save energy. These team efforts are called global initiatives for energy conservation.
One big example is the Paris Agreement, in which many countries, including France, Germany, and Canada, promised to use cleaner energy and reduce pollution.
Several nations, like China, the United States, India, and Morocco, build large-scale solar farms to harness solar energy and generate electricity.
Others, like Germany and Denmark, use wind farms with giant spinning turbines to make clean power.
Norway and Brazil use hydroelectric dams to turn the energy of flowing water into electricity.
Cities worldwide, such as those in the Netherlands and Colombia, are adding more bike lanes and public buses that run on electricity instead of gas.
Some places, like India and Pakistan, are planting millions of trees to help clean the air and cool down city areas.
Special events like Earth Hour in countries such as Australia, Canada, and South Africa ask everyone to turn off their lights for one hour to show support for saving energy.
