The climate has always changed, the climate change problem is that in the last century, the pace of these changes has been greatly accelerated, and the trend is that this acceleration will be exponential if not put measures. In seeking the cause of this acceleration was found that there was a direct link between global warming or climate change and rising emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) caused by industrialized societies.

If global development, population growth and energy consumption based on fossil fuels continues to increase at the current pace, by 2050 CO2 concentrations will have doubled compared to those before the revolution industrial. The present century is expected that the global temperature increase between 1 and 5 º C. Increases in temperature above 2 º C may induce rapid responses, and nonlinear contingencies that could trigger significant damage to ecosystems.

CASA:
1. By putting the washing machine or dishwasher adjusted to optimize the capacity of programs and low temperature. - Save energy and your clothes will last longer.
2. Choosing energy saving light bulbs. -Consume 80% less energy and last 8 times more.

In short, a low-light W 11-15 throughout his life can save about 68 euros. Also avoids the emission of nearly half a tonne of CO2.
3. At the time of purchasing an appliance, look at energy and water they consume and chooses the classification of A. (LINK)
4. Defrost the fridge before the ice-frost-3mm thickness range: you can save up to 30%. Set the thermostat to maintain a temperature of 6 º C in the cooling compartment and -18 ° C in freezing.
5. While you wash your teeth or soaping in the shower close the faucet.

OFFICE:
1. Shut down the computer and display at lunch and at the end of the day. Use equipment with low power consumption, such as Energy Star labeled

program on your computer screen to turn off when not in use, it will appear in the options screen protection.
2. Turn off the lights when you leave the office. Do not turn on the lights you're not using, zoning takes (on / off for zones). 3
. Recycle and reuse paper. Reuse the faces of the white paper. Photocopy and print on both sides. Available on the market copiers and printers that allow it.

TRANSPORT:
1. By car, if you travel less than 3 km., Pollute more because the engine is cold, and burning is not optimal.
2. Seeks to transfer by public transport: trains or buses. For short distances you can use the bike, if not dangerous, the exercise will keep you in shape.

If you really need the car
3. Coordinate with family or friends to go together by car.
4. Turn off the engine if you're stopped or waiting more than 30 seconds.
5. Check tire pressure, as a minimum difference with the right thing can increase fuel consumption by about 5%.

AIR CONDITIONING:
Summer Winter

regulates the air conditioning:
or For every 1 º C increase in summer can save between 6-7% of energy to adjust the air conditioning thermostat at 25 ° C. or
For every 1 º C decrease in winter can save between 6-7% of energy to lower the heating thermostat to 19 º or 20 º C. In any case
a difference with the outside temperature exceeds 12 º C is not healthy.

SUMMER:
or install awnings, blinds closed the curtains and runs during the day, avoid heating the house.
Ventilate the house or when the air is cooler Street ( early morning and at night).
or a fan, preferably of roof may be sufficient to maintain an adequate comfort.

If necessary install an air conditioner to keep in as much as follows:
o Energy labeling appliances with Class A are the most suitable.
Or Set the cooling temperature at 25 º.
o Close windows and doors, while you have the air conditioning on.
or placing the appliance in such a way that gives the sun as little as possible and that there is good air circulation. If you were on a roof covered with a system ensombramiento.
Or turn on when the air conditioner, do not set the thermostat at a lower temperature than usual: not cool the house faster and could lower the temperature, causing unnecessary expense and possible colds.

WINTER: Isolates
or the house or building, lower the blinds and at night, close the curtains will prevent heat loss.
Or down the heating thermostat to 19 º and 20 º C is more than enough to be comfortable. While aireas, turn off heat. To maintain 10 min. open windows and get a proper ventilation saves energy.
Tip: when buying an electrical appliance energy label always look the same, and if the budget allows, buy a Category A. Eventually, our pocketbook and the environment will thank us for it.

Label Energy

The energy label is mandatory in refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, washing machines and electric dryers. We report the energy efficiency of these devices, consumption, performance, capacity, noise, etc. These tags can serve us very helpful to decide between one model or another. Many times the price of an item can not be as important as the consumption during its lifetime, since the low in a short time can recoup the higher price usually associated with more efficient appliances.

There are 7 classes ranging from energy A (more efficient) to G (less efficient) in terms of electricity consumption.
! Attention! You can only compare the labels of the same group of appliances. That means that a refrigerator of a given type can only be compared with another of the same type refrigerator

tags to express the energy performance of appliances, must be followed by a strip in which are the specific values, such as the arrow with the letter, consumption, capacity, noise, etc.
