Go Green or Go Home…or better yet – go green at home!
If I start on the reasons why South Africa is in the midst of an energy crisis, I’ll just end up ranting! So rather than subject you to a rant, I’m going to accept what I can’t change and look at the things we can do. Energy and how to use less of it, is after all, a global concern.
Some tips for cutting your electricity bill:• Defrostfoodbytakingitoutafewhoursearlierratherthanuseamicrowave.• Unplugappliancesincludingcellphonechargersandyourcomputer.• Hanglaundryoutsideinsteadofusingatumbledryer.• Runthedishwasherandwashingmachineonlyonfullloads.• Don’toverfillthekettle.Justboiltheamountofwateryouneed.• Turnofflightsinroomsyouarenotusing.• Useenergy-efficientlightbulbs.
