ENERGY
If you are in the financial position to
incorporate more renewable
energies into your life, then do it!
Installing a few solar panels on your
house or investing in an
electric/hybrid car, is a great way to
cut back on your energy waste.

WATER
Try washing your clothes in cold
water! When you do a load of
laundry about 85 percent to 90
percent of the energy is used for
heating the water alone. Cold water
can also help remove tough stains,
keep your clothes from shrinking and
fading, and reduces wrinkles!

Nothing is too small or

insignificant when it comes to
reducing your energy
consumption. Charging your
devices, like laptops and
phones, only when needed, and
shutting them down each night
is a great habit to get into!
