Today's topic is reducing the amount of electricity consumption in PUK.There were four panelists.

Mariko Uemura is a second-year student who majors in English literature.She insisted that students have right to require a comfortable environment to study.At first,she did not think about earth's environment at all.
Keiko Kiyota works for General Administration Division in PUK for 5 years.She thinks that reducing heating makes the amount of electricity consumption reduce.
Takashi Sakaguchi is a second-year student who majors in combined management.He is also interested in environment management program.He is a member of badminton club.
Ryouichi Shinohara is the professor of environmental symbiosis.He also claims that students and teachers have right to require a comfortable environment to study.

We need seventy five million yen to heat up and cool down rooms a year.We have to set the temperature so as to reduce the amount of electricity consumption.

How about setting the temperature every facilities,28 degrees Celsius in the summer and 18 degrees Celsius in the winter.
Is the 28 degrees Celsius in the summer too hot?Is the 18 degrees Celsius in the winter too cold?Is it quite serious to set the temperature?

Mariko Uemura demanded that all students can set any temperature to require comfortable environment.
Takashi Sakaguchi suggested to set the temperature,26 degrees Celsius in the summer and 20 degrees Celsius in the winter.This temperature is a minimum limit.

Ryouichi Shinohara came up with a suggestion to introduce solar panels to PUK.A solar panel which generates 1 kilo watts of electricity costs us 700,000yen.A solar panel has little environmental impact.The more energy you use,the more CO2 emit.In the long term,solar panels are effective way to reduce the amount of electricity consumption but they do not take immediate effect.So compromise is needed now.

PUC is the Prefectural University of Kumamoto but the grant of Kumamoto prefecture decrease year by year.

Takashi Sakaguchi who is a member of badminton club said that they do not need cooling system for their sports activity.

To be frank with you,now we have 20 kw solar panels in PUK.If they have 30 kw solar panels,we will be able to reduce one percent of total cost.Total amount of electricity consumption is 5,630,000kw and 75,110,000yen.If we use the more amount of electricity,our tuition fees will increase. It also causes environmental damage.

Our consensus is to use ceiling fans to make circular in all seasons when we use both a electric
fan and an air conditioner.
