Conservation of electricity is the need of the hour and we must begin by changing our habits at household level. The most basic measures which should be adopted for the conservation of electricity in our house are:

(i) One must switch off the lights, fans, television and other electrical appliances when not in use.

(ii) One must use energy efficient electrical appliances.

(iii) One must use CFLs instead of normal lights.

(iv) In a multistoried building, one must use stairs to climb up at least 3 floors instead of taking a lift.
