ENERGY
IF WE EACH SAVER LITTLE, WE'LL ALL SAVER lAir,
With supplies of crude oil in Eastern Canada barely sufficient
to meet demand, real shortages of gasoline and heating oil
could occur here in Ontario if we can't maintain our imports.
Alternate, more dependable forms of energy are being
developed, but that will take time. What is important today is
that each one of us makes the best possible use of existing
energy supplies.
Little ways in which you can save energy may seem
insignificant, but in fact they are not. For example, it has
been estimated that if each person in Ontario saved just a
penny's worth of energy each day, we'd save enough energy
in a week to heat up to 2,500 homes for an entire year.
Nobody has the right to waste any form of power. The time
has come for every person to do everything possible to
ensure the wisest use of energy.
Good energy habits learned now, especially by our young
people, will help bring us through this winter, and pay off
even more in years to come. Let's get to work.
40-44 Around the farm.
A well-tuned tractor burns 10% less
fuel 0 Underground or pressurized
storage tanks reduce vapourization
loss 0 Reduce tractor wheel slip and
you save fuel 0 Prolonged idling of
engines wastes gas 0 Can you turn
yard lights off earlier?
45-47 At work.
Can the thermostat be turned down?
0 Can you turn off any lights? 0 Has
your company got an Energy
Conservation Suggestion Scheme?
We're taking our own advice.
All Ministries and Agencies of the
Ontario Government are doing their
bit to conserve energy. Lighting and
heating levels are being reduced in
government buildings; a new
emphasis is being given to economi-
cal operation of vehicles; Ontario
Hydro and the Ministry of Education
are encouraging consumers and
schoolchildren to learn good habits
in the use of energy. And that's just
a beginning!
