Be Cool

There are some good tips on the Global Cool website for living green.

Such as:

• Turn your heating down by 1 degree.
• Don't leave electronics, appliances, and gadgets on "standby." Turn them off instead.
• Unplug chargers when you are done, so they won't drain energy.
• While cooking, don't boil over.
• Fly less often.
• Turn off lights when not required (should be obvious, but people still don't do it!). If you don't need them on then switch them off, they waste so much energy.
• Switch to a supplier that generates electricity through wind, water and solar power.
• Take a low-power shower.
• Buy better bulbs such as compact fluorescent bulbs.
• Pack the freezer, empty space wastes energy.
• Park the car, take a walk.
• Use better home insulation.
• Wash your clothes at a lower temperature in the washer.
• Buy locally grown foods.
