Start with these easy steps to do your part against global warming, and get other's to join you!
~lightbulbs. switch to flourescent for more energy efficient lighting.
~check that water heater! This is the homes biggest energy user & most have it set to high. Set it to 120*. Switch to gas or even better- go solar!
~check your appliances. some refridgerators, dishwashers, washers, etc have an 'energy-saving' setting.
When the time comes for new~ go for energy efficient ones! (also put up a clothesline~ get away from the dryer!)
~How about that thermostat? During the cool weather when the heat is on, set it lower, especially at night when most rooms are unoccupied. In the hot months, set the air a little higher. Those few degrees save you big time!
~showerheads & faucets. Go to 'low flow' to save water (especially hot water, & use of energy to heat it!)
~turn off appliances when not in use. This is a big one~ that 'stand by' mode is still using electricity. Your biggest culprits are the t.v., lights, the computer and cell phone chargers! Unplug them.
~how about your car tires? Proper inflation improves gas milage (woo hoo)
There it is. Quick & easy steps to do your part in saving the planet.
Get your friends, enemies, family, neighbors involved too! =o)
