Sadly, not everyone agrees with this scientifically proven fact; there are many sceptics around the world who deny the very existence of global warming or the idea of humans being able to positively or negatively influence these changes. However, it has been proven that this undoubtedly complex problem can be resolved to a large degree if we individually take measures in the correct direction. Simple solutions, such as saving and using our energy in a more efficient way at home will have a positive impact on reducing the adverse effects of climate change on our planet. Some proposals were aimed at using energy in buildings more efficiently. This solution makes it possible to reduce electricity bills, accounting for around 70% of the annual bill payment. On the basis of these factors temperature can be adjusted to reduce unnecessary energy consumption while maintaining the residents’ comfort.

Abstract


Sadly, not everyone agrees with this scientifically proven fact; there are many sceptics around the world who deny the very existence of global warming or the idea of humans being able to positively or negatively influence these changes. However, it has been proven that this undoubtedly complex problem can be resolved to a large degree if we individually take measures in the correct direction. Simple solutions, such as saving and using our energy in a more efficient way at home will have a positive impact on reducing the adverse effects of climate change on our planet. Some proposals were aimed at using energy in buildings more efficiently. This solution makes it possible to reduce electricity bills, accounting for around 70% of the annual bill payment. On the basis of these factors temperature can be adjusted to reduce unnecessary energy consumption while maintaining the residents’ comfort.
