Conserve energy and money at the same time Times are tough right now! But don’t stop investing in energy-saving items for your home! There are so many changes you can make in your home to save money and help the environment. Check out some easy and inexpensive ways to save money on your utility bills: Energy efficient lighting Save money in the long run by paying a little extra now for energy efficient CFL or compact fluorescent light bulbs instead of standard incandescent light bulbs. You will get a quick payback on the little extra investment! And be proud that you helped reduce energy consumption. If every American home replaced just one light bulb with an ENERGY STAR qualified bulb, we would save enough energy to light more than 3 million homes for a year, more than $600 million in annual energy costs, and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of more than 800,000 cars. Water conservation Although not often talked about, water needs to be conserved! Some U.S. cities might be depleted of their water source in the near future. This is actually pretty scary when you read about it! Check out this CNN report.
