A Dialogue Between Jake and His Mother
Jake: (playing on the computer) Mother: (enters the room) Jake, what are you doing? Why is the window open, the heating on high, and all the lights on? Jake: Oh, hi mom. I was just playing a game on the computer and got carried away. I didn't realize I left the window open and the lights on. Mother: Jake, we need to be more mindful of our energy usage. Leaving the heating on high and all the lights on is not only wasteful but also bad for the environment. Jake: I'm sorry, mom. I didn't think about that. I'll make sure to be more responsible next time. Mother: It's important to be aware of our actions and their impact, Jake. We should always strive to conserve energy and reduce our carbon footprint. Jake: You're right, mom. I'll be more conscious of my energy usage from now on. Mother: That's good to hear, Jake. Let's make an effort to turn off lights when we leave a room and adjust the heating to a reasonable temperature. Jake: I promise I'll do better, mom. Thank you for reminding me. Mother: You're welcome, Jake. It's important for all of us to do our part in protecting the environment. Let's work together to make a difference. Jake: I'm glad you're here to guide me, mom. I'll do my best. Mother: I know you will, Jake. Now, let's go ahead and close the window, turn off the lights, and adjust the heating.
