The word protection can have several interpretations. Protection is the act of protecting or saving someone from any source of potential harm. Protection is better than cure. To protect yourself from diseases, you need to stay fit and consume a balanced diet. To protect yourself from the evil intentions of others, you need to be vigilant and alert in your choice of friends. Make sure that you stay in the company of good people. Something that protects is said to be a protection aid. The word protection also applies to any contraceptive or barrier that lowers the risk of pregnancy or infection, like a condom. Paul Gillmor had once remarked, “Among the many important provisions in the energy bill are the creation of an estimated half million new jobs, increased oil production, blackout protection, controlling fertilizer costs by stabilizing natural gas prices and enacting new efficiency benchmarks.”
