Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

AN ENERGY CONSERVATION programme launched in November 1973 by Perkins Engines of Peterborough, has helped the company save nearly one million gallons of fuel oil.

The company has a Suggestion Scheme to encourage employees to think of new ways of cutting energy consumption. The current maximum award for any idea is f 1,000, and this is being increased to a possible f 2,000.

This conservation policy has saved Perkins four Peterborough factories £124,000 over the past year.

The firm has a Fuel Conservation Committee which has begun a number of fuel saving projects, including the lowering of heating in offices from 20° to 17.20C (680to 63° F) and a campaign to arouse staff interest.
