Energy production is essential in the country, but this production causes a great environmental impact, which harms life on the planet. For this reason, it is necessary to create projects that maintain energy production, but preserve nature.

Based on this, you can answer the above questions as follows:

A. The demand for energy is very high in any society, for this reason the government must balance energy production with environmental preservation. This can be done as follows:

  • Encouraging the use of renewable energies (mainly for public buildings),
  • promoting equipment that promote greater efficiency in energy production,
  • establishing government programs that promote the reduction of fossil fuel burning,
  • managing and evaluating energy data to achieve mitigation over-exploitation.

B. To help the environment, we can save on our energy use by allowing the demand for it to decrease. We can do this by:

  • taking quicker hot showers,
  • unplugging electronic devices when they're not in use;
  • reducing the use of cars and vehicles that need to burn gasoline,
  • creating community programs that promote energy savings.

C. People would make sacrifices to decrease energy use if they were taught that our survival directly depends on it. Also, it would be important for these people to be educated about how energy savings would be rewarding for them.
