Eco News & Site UpdatesGreen Tips of the Day
Choose compact fluorescent light bulbs
Replace old-fashioned incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent light
bulbs (CFLs), which use 75 percent less energy and last ten time
longer. A typical seventy-five watt incandescent bulb can be replaced
by a twenty watt CFL.
Keep a Pitcher of Water in Your Fridge
For one thing, a pitcher full of water will help your refrigerator keep your food cool more efficiently,
much like how a cold ice pack works in a cooler. Also, whenever you
want a glass of water, you won't have to let the tap run for a few
moments to obtain a cool temperature, cutting down on waste. Plus you won't
need as much ice, which requires energy to make.
