What do you to to reduce energy consumption?

Climate change is the major, overriding environmental issue of our time,what can one person, or even one nation, do on their own to slow and reverse climate change?

did you know you spend more money on electricity to power devices when off than when on? What you need to do is to unplug them instead.

Purchasing energy-efficient gadgets can also save both energy and money—and thus prevent more greenhouse_gas_emissions.

Swapping old incandescent lightbulbs for more efficient replacements, such as compact fluorescents, would save billions of kilowatt-hours. In fact, according to the EPA, replacing just one incandescent lightbulb in every home would save enough energy to provide electricity to three million homes.

How about you, what do you do to reduce energy consumption?

Changed all my lights to led, and installed solar panels and attempt to profile my consumption to match generation.

Given this is the parenting forum I feel honour-bound to point out contraception is one of the most energy saving things ever to be invented.

Hi! Actually, there are many ways to conserve or reduce energy consumption. Aside from the saving tips that we are usually aware of like taking control of the electricity, electronic meter and Led bulbs. Other means could be cutting down on all our utility expense and reduce carbon emissions also. Though, I guess, there are a much better and effective solutions out there and this could be the right monitoring and management that only experts could answer to our questions.
