Energy efficiency is about using less energy to provide the same service. Energy-efficient light bulbs are a great example. They give off the same amount of light using less electricity. The same goes for energy-efficient cars. They travel the same distance using less gas.
College-bound
A college degree is one of the best ways to boost your income. You can study full-time at a traditional four-year college or you can study first at a community college. Many 4-year colleges have admissions requirements you need to meet to get in; many community colleges accept almost everyone with a high school degree or GED. You can study part-time, in-person or online. Either way, getting a four-year, bachelor’s degree or a two-year, associate’s degree can really improve your chances of getting a good-paying and rewarding job that helps the environment.
