Did You Participate?

On March 29th We celebrated Earth Hour by turning off all of our lights, lighting candles and enjoyed each others company...

And one hour once a year is a great idea to bring aweness to energy consumption...but what can we do year round? Hubby and I decided a candlelit hour a night for the rest of the year will help us appreciate the hours we spend with electricity (Besides, we both look soooo much better by candlelight LOL)...

But if that is too drastic for your household...here are some things you can do:
Simple things like turning off appliances while not in use and switching your light globes to energy efficient bulbs, will all help us reach our goal of reducing our annual emissions by 5%. Even something as simple as turning out lights when you’re not in a room and switching to cleaner sources of electricity like “green power”, make a big difference.
