For me “Going Green” really isn’t all that new. I have been “Green” out of necessity for most of my life, HA !! Who knew it would become this popular. I want to share a few things that we can all do to help conserve and of course they won’t really effect your day to day living and some with a little planning will work out just fine. First on my list are the light bulbs , yes just by changing your light bulbs to energy efficient light bulbs this can save you money every month on your electricity bill and well worth doing. Next turn things off when you are not using them, by that I mean turn the light off when you exit a room, and believe it or not if you are able to don’t turn the bathroom light on every time, of course make sure you have a little light, if you don’t have a little light try investing in a night light that can be turned off and on so again you don’t have to turn the light on every single time.

Make good use of sunlight, open your drapes and that can help to heat up a room and at the same time you won’t have to turn on a lamp, which again will help keep your bill low. Turn off your computer when it is not in use, and one last suggestion is to try to go at least one night or more without television. Now this one took a really big effort for me because I am one addicted T.V. person but I am fine and yes I did think I would just turn into a mess if I didn’t have my T.V. but it isn’t bad at all. We have “game” night which I will have to admit is a lot more fun than T.V. Stay tuned next week I will have a few water saving ideas, now this wasn’t so bad was it ?
