Energy Efficiency Tips

Change your light bulbs to LEDs.
Set your refrigerator temperature to the manufacturer's recommendation to avoid excessive cooling and wasting energy.
Don't leave your mobile phone plugged in overnight. It only takes a couple of hours to charge.
Use natural light when possible.
Don't leave your electronics on all day long. Only turn on your computer, monitor, printer and fax machine when you need them.
