"Kick The Habit", Lifestyle to Efficiency

Kick our lifestyle habits to achieve energy efficiency

by DonAmes

Habit Places: Let’s face it, we’re set in our ways and this is the fast food, mega store generation.

To accommodate our modern life style of convenience, it has become natural to run the dishwasher half full, operate the maytag with just the shirt we need, hang another big screen TV on the wall, leave the desktop and monitor on 24/7 and take a shower under a nozzle that could cut a  gulley in the desert. Is your home a real energy waster or is the home simply reacting to the people living within? Remember when you were young and Grandma kept reminding you to turn the bathroom light off? When it comes to saving energy, we would do well to start changing some old wasteful habits and admit it’s not all our homes fault that the power bill makes our jaw drop.
