Here are some tips that any of us can do to save the earth from heating up.
1. Use fluorescent lights. A compact fluorescent light with 16 watts can produce the same light as a 60-watt incandescent or yellow bulb and consumes less energy. Always turn off lights when not in use. Aside from saving more energy by switching off unused lights, it will also save your house from burning.
2. As much as light consumes energy, electrical appliances use more heat so it is always recommended to turn your TV, Radio or Computers off when not in use. For TV sets, try turning it off from the main switch instead of from the remote control. Turning your TV off from the remote will still leave you TV on through the main switch, thus, it still uses very little electricity, which will also count on your monthly bill. This can be applicable to other electronic and household appliances too. If possible, try to unplug.
3. If you own a vehicle, try conserving on gas by walking to your nearest grocery store or when going to church. This way, you can also take this opportunity to bond with your family while walking your way to the supermarket or grocery store. Smokes that are emitted from cars plays a great role in contributing to the heating up of air. If you don’t like to walk, use a bicycle instead. Just like walking, it will also help regulate your heart and keep you physically fit.
Well, these are just a few tips but I’m sure if you try these tips, it would not just lower your monthly electric bills, it would also keep you healthy.
