SDG 12. Responsible consumption and production

On October 24, 2023, in dormitory No.17,   Dairabekova G.K., the lecturer  in  the Department of Foreign Philology and Translation Studies  held an educational  event with the  2nd year students of Foreign Philology major. During the event, she explained  the main idea of  “SDG 12. Responsible consumption and production” to the  students. In particular she made a focus on economical way of using energy in the dormitory.

Nowadays, it is impossible to imagine human life without electricity. We get  the most of our energy from natural resources. Coal, oil and gas are non-renewable minerals. We must remember that one day everything will end, so it is necessary to follow the rules for utilizing  household appliances and turn off all gadgets and appliances  when they are not used, especially those ones  that consume a lot of electricity: electric stoves and  kitchen appliances. As  any device connected to current consumes   a lot of electricity, even when it does not work. When purchasing new appliances, pay attention to energy efficiency labels.  The lecturer  recommended the  students  to find  1 day during  a week not to employ   gadgets, TV, laptop, smartphone. On that day they should   go for a walk, read  books, communicate with family and friends and do sports activities.

The energy of any country is a decisive factor in the progress of its economy, and in certain cases, the level of well-being of citizens, or gives impetus to its development.
