Bedtime Hours Can Save Energy

The time at which you sleep can make a difference. And by this, we do not just mean health. We are also considering the fact of saving energy, a common issue we are encountering today.

Apparently this stems from the fact that we are using up electricity so much when we are awake and this includes:

Watching Television
Using Microwave Ovens
Turning up those radios and components
Keeping the lights open

All of these enumerated facts use electricity and even if people try to economize by using them sparingly, setting a certain time where minimal use of electricity can do a lot for us anywhere today.

“Go to sleep earlier so that you can grow and be cleverer. Boil less water, use the microwave rather than stove, take a shower and not a shallow bath,” was Minerals and Energy Minister Buyelwa Sonjica’s advice to the country at a special joint parliamentary sitting to discuss the power crisis.
