By changing light bulbs in your home, you can save 30 – 80% on your energy bills! Here are some other cool ways to save money by changing things in your home:
- Buy ENERGY STAR appliances. Energy efficient large appliances are made with saving power and money in mind. When its time to replace your next large appliance, make sure you’re using an energy saving machine.
- Shut off lights and devices you’re not using. If you take daily, energy-efficient actions, you’re guaranteed to see some drops on your energy bills.
Help the Environment
Electricity and power are created by burning fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gases. When we cut down on the amount of power we use, we’re also cutting down on the pollution being pumped into our air.
There are a lot of different electric companies and organizations that are working to bring clean energy (called green energy) to the world. They use different things like air, water, and the sun to power things. If you have a chance to change use some of these things, you’ll be helping the environment in a big way!
Here in San Diego, San Diego Gas and Electric Company (SDG&E) has developed an Energy Innovation Center, that showcases some of the most futuristic and innovative technologies, to help people learn more about energy and conservation. You can check them out Monday – Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 4760 Clairemont Mesa Blvd. San Diego, CA 92117.
