Saving electricity is easier than you think. It really makes sense... even dollars. It literally take minutes to start being more energy efficient and conscience about what you are doing, or more importantly what you are not doing. Starting small is a great way to go. For instance, your lighting. Replacing your lights with LED bulbs is a great way to save energy immediately - and don't worry, if you can't do it all at once, start with lights you use the most. Close the blinds or shades to keep the heat or cold in. Get your ducts sealed for leaks. Keep that freezer filled. Always look for that Energy Start logo for appliances and lighting. And read those online resources from your energy provider. Make it a habit to think energy savings. I challenge you to start doing some of the things I have mentioned and be more WattSmart. It's catchy, I guarantee it.
