Energy and Sustainability

Our human beings are using a large amount of energy. Substainabilty is a significant idea which has been considered and tanken into practiceby experts. Business also can devote to sustainable development.

There are a lot of washrooms in UBC and it is easy to find that the lights in washrooms is truning on days and nights. This situations is a big waste of the energy and this might not fit with sustainability . So I think it can be improved by replacing with electornic senor lights in washrooms to save energy and develop sustainable. Here is a picture of electronic senor light:

It is obviously that this kind of light is small and exquisite. The most important advantage is it saves energy. When you walk into the washroom, it will turn on automatically and when you walk out the washroom, it will turn off by itself.

Why I say that business can help sustainability? Because that I think if UBC decide to replace with the electronic senor light, it must be a large amount of demand. Business part of UBC can make projects to cooperate with the electronic senor light company so that the corporation can help UBC save money in purchse. UBC will save money in electric charge to a great extent. Most importantly, UBC will save energy to devote in sustainability development.
