It's really pretty simple.

Increased energy efficiency and resource conservation are good for the environment and good for the economy. Indeed, they are good for all of us.

Energy efficient lighting will lower your electric bill. Tightening up your house will reduce your heating bill. Using water-saving aerators will lower your water usage. All of these will save you money while helping the environment.

Take Action...

Replacing a 100 watt incandescent light bulb with a 25 watt compact fluorescent bulb will save 135 kWh of electricity annually, and can reduce associated carbon dioxide emission by 193 pounds (based on 5 hours per day use and 1.43 lbs CO2/kWh).

Commonly available 2.5 gpm "water-saving" showerheads aren't really water-saving, since this flow-rate is probably what you already have. Putting in a 1.75 gpm showerhead, however, will reduce your water use by 2,737 gallons a year (assuming a 10 minute daily shower).

Putting outdoor lights on a wall switch timer is a great way to save energy - but if you don't adjust the timer seasonally it will turn on too early in the summer or too late in the winter. A solar timetable switch will automatically adjust based on your longitude and latitude, helping insure that lights are only on when needed.

Using more efficient products is one way each of us can make a difference, and Energy Plus Company makes it easy.
