...turned out a light, they don't need, I wonder how much energy that'll save.
Nature is beautiful and needs to be saved.
Here are some advices on how to be more environmentally friendly:
- Don't forget to set your Game Consoles on Power Save. Very Important: always turn them off completely. Xbox & PS3 set on sleep almost use up as much power as if they were in use.
- Power Strips with a switch prevent the electronic devices from staying on Stand-by.
- Everything adds up, so unplug all the Chargers you do not need.
- Use green search machines like: http://ecosia.org/ (it uses green electricity)
- Switch to a green electricity provider!
- Use rechargable batteries instead of normal ones. FYI: 1 rechargeable battery can replace about 500 normal batteries!!
- For your computer, laptop, etc. set it on Power Save (Plan)! And forget about the Screen Saver alltogether.
- Whenever you leave your work area to take a break, remember to switch off the Computer screen.
- Save Paper: Print your stuff on both sides.
- Let them send you your bills via e-mail.
- FYI: The production of recycled paper uses 50 % less water and energy!
- So: Only use recycled paper, toiletpaper, tissues...
- Finish your old supplies and switch to climate friendly cleaning products & detergent!
- Only because you are using a lot of a cleaning supply doesn't necessarily mean that it'll be any cleaner ;) So be aware of the right dosage!
- Don't use the small pots for the big hotplates and don't forget to put the lid on while cooking!
- Water heater are a much better option for heating water for tea or broth than using the stove.
- Cooking and baking yourself is way more fun, tastes better and finally is more climate friendly.
- Let your leftovers cool off before putting them in the fridge.
