Explain the difference between the law of conservation of energy and conserving energy? What are some of the ways that we can conserve energy?
What is the law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created or destroyed and conserving energy is how we go about saving our natural resources. Things such as turning off our water when we brush our teeth, or turning a light off when we leave a room!
