Take Action! It's Really That Easy

Last month at the launch of the Anybody Can Serve... So, Let's Conserve campaign I picked up a simple steps door hangar.  It included a lot of inexpensive, really easy and quite simple steps you can use to save energy and reduce your utility bills - and no it doesn't involve installing solar panels!

         SIMPLE STEPS TOWARDS ENERGY EFFICIENCY

• Change incandescent light bulbs to energy efficient ones;
• Run your dishwashers only when it’s full;
• Use a low flow energy head in your shower;
• Wash your clothes in cold water;
• Make sure to your water heater is insulated;
• Do not allow the thermostat to exceed 120 F;
• Turn off and unplug electronics when they are not in use;
• Weatherize your home;
• Clean dirty air condition filters and keep them clean;
• Adjust your heater thermostat down two degrees in the winter and increase it by two degrees in the summer; and
• Buy energy efficient appliances.
