Energy+Busters

=
Most of the energy we use in our homes comes directly from burning fuel, such as firewood or natural gas, or indirectly in the form of electricity. In Australia, over 90% of electricity is generated by burning coal. Coal, oil and gas are called "**fossil fuels**" because they have been formed from the remains of prehistoric plants and animals. We mine coal from the earth. We should try to save energy to help slow down climate change and to save our fossil fuels. ======


 * The average home has roughly 40 lightbulbs and 4 people. Imagine how much energy you would save if you only used them one at a time. Roughly 90%. **

 A DVD on standby uses almost as much electricity as playing a DVD. Keeping the little standby light on doesn't actually do you or the planet much good. It's still costing money and wasting energy.


 * Remember that saving energy is really important so the energy busters Tanya, Emma, Hayley and Alisha will be watching how your class has been doing on saving energy. **
