For example‚ driving less is an example of energy conservation. Driving the same amount with a higher mileage vehicle is an example of energy efficiency. Energy conservation and efficiency are both energy reduction techniques. Even though energy conservation reduces energy services‚ it can result in

We cannot use this water because it is too saline for our needs. Only 3% of Earth’s water is fresh‚ and 2% of that supply is frozen
