Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency is one of the environmental movement's most important factors. Climate change is worsened by the emission of greenhouse gases — much of which is created by the burning of fossil fuels for energy. When the energy efficiency of any product, vehicle, building or other energy-using entity improves, it creates fewer emissions and contributes far less to climate change. (Photo: Flickr)
