Four Tips to Help You Save Energy
MarinaHanes ~ 4 September 2009
In light of the energy crisis we are facing, below are some tips on how you can help conserve energy and save money too:
- Turn off lights that are unneeded, and explain to your children why it’s so important to turn the lights out when they leave a room. Instead of using the lights, open the blinds during the day and use natural light when you do house or office work.
- Remember to turn your computer off when you’re done using it. Put it in hibernation mode during the day when you’re taking a break, but turn it off before you go to bed.
- Install motion sensors for lights in and outside of your home. This can prevent you from using lights when you don’t need them.
- Purchase an energy monitor or get an energy audit done on your house. This can help you determine how much energy you’re using and assist you with monitoring how much you’re spending on your energy bill.
