International Energy Saving Day

International Energy Saving Day encourages people to use heat and electricity thoughtfully. The aim is to find ways to do everyday things with less energy while keeping homes comfortable and reducing environmental impact.
How it is celebrated: schools hold lessons and experiments, while awareness activities explore insulation and efficient lighting. Participants look for wasted energy and try practical changes, such as switching off lights in empty rooms.
An LED bulb needs much less electricity than an incandescent bulb to produce similar brightness. The older bulb turns most of the energy it uses into heat rather than visible light.
