Energy Awareness

Wow!!! If you have visited my blog before you know that there have been several special days in October all ready. If you have never visited, take a second and look around. Today, is no different as I bring you another great awareness event that takes place in October. This time the cause is Energy Awareness.

October often brings thoughts of  bonfires, hay rides, pumpkins and so much more. But as you switch your warm weather clothes for your cooler weather ones think about how you can be more aware of how much energy your family uses.
Get your family involved by inquiring with them what they think energy is.

Inform your children that energy comes in a variety of forms. Heat, light, motion, and chemicals are all forms of energy. From the supper that is cooked using energy from gas, electricity or even charcoal grill. The food that we eat is even full of energy. Our bodies stores until it needs it to help your body work and put you in motion. Other ways our family use energy include:

• The form of transportation that we use to get around depends on energy use of gas or electricity. 
• Our clothes are washed using energy as well. The machines run on gas or electricity.
• The games, t.v. , stereo and more are all ran on one energy source or another. 
• Using the fire pit when wood is being burned chemical energy is being used

The list of ways that energy used is limitless.
