Save money and do some good for the world around you by using simple measures to conserve energy in the home. If you’re not sure where to start – don’t worry! We’ll be bringing you one great energy-saving tip every day for the next month.
- Light It Up
You know the way in cartoons, whenever the character has a good idea a light bulb appears over their head? Well if it’s a really good idea, chances are that that is an energy-efficient compact fluorescent bulb. Switching to this kind of bulb may cost more initially, but there’s no doubting they save money in the long run by using only 1/4 the energy of an ordinary incandescent bulb and lasting 8-12 times longer. Believe it or not, only 10 per cent of the energy consumed by a regular light bulb is on generating light – the rest simply makes the bulb hot! So, flick the switch and see the difference in your bills.
