Thomas Malthus was among the first to point out that the resouces of the earth are limited, and the increasing population will inevitably led to hardship and death. What he had to say about food applies equally to sources of energy:

Assuming then my postulata as granted, I say, that the power

of population is indefinitely greater than the power in the earth

to produce subsistence for man.

Population, when unchecked, increases in a geometrical ratio.

Subsistence increases only in an arithmetical ratio. A slight

acquaintance with numbers will shew the immensity of the first

power in comparison of the second.

By that law of our nature which makes food necessary to the

life of man, the effects of these two unequal powers must be kept

equal.

This implies a strong and constantly operating check on

population from the difficulty of subsistence. This difficulty

must fall somewhere and must necessarily be severely felt by a

large portion of mankind.

There are many Energy companies in Australia, one is ‘Tru Energy’. They have great tips on their website for making changes in your every day life, to help with climate change. I have you some example for changes you can do in your home and more specifically on ‘Cooling’.

If you look on the website, you will find more information and tips. Click on RESIDENTIAL, the HOUSEHOLD TIPS, then ENERGY TIPS for example. You might it a good idea to search ther parts of the site also. The link is below.

Also, try searching energy companies in your country, also ‘green energy’. Hope this helps.

The second link i gave you, is to a website called Solar Charge. They also deal with energy saving ideas and you’ll find some info, if you place your mouse over the ‘Products’ and ‘Learn More’ sections, as you will see a menu and specific ideas to click on.

IN THE HOME

===========

Always choose appliances with a high “star” energy rating as they more efficient.

When you’re away from home, use automatic timers to switch lights on and off.

Motion detector lights are a good energy saving option.

Switch off TVs and VCRs at the unit, instead of using the remote control, as the stand-by mode uses energy.

COOLING

========

Choose an air conditioner with programmable timing.

Close all blinds, curtains, windows and doors to keep out heat.

Use external blinds or awnings to keep out heat whenever possible.

Clean your air conditioner or cooler regularly to keep it working efficiently.

Place your cooling system or air conditioner on the shadiest side of the house.

Keep the area you are cooling to a minimum.

Use fans to keep yourself cool.

Use a minimum number of lights on summer evenings.

Turn off your cooling system while you’re out.
