ENERGY SECURITY IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER
Continuous
escalation in energy consumption demands new
global initiative. As a net oil importing
country, we import well over half the petroleum
and petroleum products, as well as an increasing
share of natural gas. Globalization plays a key
role in America's reliance on energy to fuel its
post-industrial economy. America's ability to
defend energy security will leave visible impact
of the free world.
ENERGY & US
Saving energy –
through efficient and wise energy use – helps
protect the environment. When we save on energy
use, we help prevent carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions and other forms of air pollution.
Energy efficiency is a smart practice that helps
the economy, too, by saving consumers and
businesses million of dollars in energy costs
each year. Research and innovation continue to
bring high-performing, energy efficient products
and technologies to the marketplace.
CO2 is the key
greenhouse gas responsible for global warming
concerns. The overwhelming share of U.S. and
world carbon dioxide emissions comes from
burning fossil fuels, such as oil, coal and gas
– our main sources of energy. Burning fossil
fuel causes emissions of other greenhouse gases
as well, such as methane (CH4)
and nitrous oxide (N2O).
In the United States. the EPA, has several
initiatives – often in collaboration with the
Department of Energy – underway with industries,
consumers, and state and local governments to
improve energy efficiency across all sectors of
the economy. Energy efficient products and
technologies are saving money and improving
overall energy performance in commercial
buildings, school systems, local governments,
homes, transportation networks, electricity
plants, and many other areas.
Each of us can help prevent global warming and
save ourselves money through our own purchasing
decisions and lifestyle choices. There are
plenty of opportunities.
When purchasing a new automobile, for example,
consider how many miles per gallon it gets
(visit DOE's
Fuel Economy Site).
Consider car pooling, taking public transit if
available, or possibly riding your bike to work,
among
other options.
There are simple ways to
save energy at home,
as well. The electricity we use in our homes is
usually generated by combusting coal, oil, or
natural gas at a nearby power plant. So the less
energy we use at home the more pollution we can
prevent. When buying or replacing products or
appliances in the home, look for the
ENERGY STAR®
label – the national symbol for energy
efficiency. Products with the label save energy,
save money on utility bills, and help protect
the environment.
