🆕Energy Management – Take Action Today🎬

Focusing on energy management is a great way to leave the world a better place than we found it. The small actions we take and the choices we make everyday compound over time!

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Conduct an energy audit: Start by identifying areas of energy waste in your workplace or home, and then take steps to address them. If you have kids, consider involving them in this!

I know we’re all doing this already, but switch to LED lighting: LED bulbs are more energy-efficient than traditional bulbs and can save you money on your electricity bills. You probably have some old incandescents hanging around somewhere – go find them and change them!

Use power strips: Plug your electronics into power strips and turn them off when not in use to reduce energy waste.

Adjust your thermostat: Lower your thermostat by a few degrees in the winter and raise it in the summer to save energy and money. These spring days are a good time to make this change.

Choose energy-efficient appliances: When it’s time to replace your appliances, look for energy-efficient models that can save you money over time. (No comment on gas stoves…😁)

By getting involved in energy management, we can make a real difference in reducing our carbon footprint and creating a more sustainable & functional future. Whether you’re at work or at home, there are many small steps you can take to make a big impact.

Let’s start this week off with a commitment to energy management and a better tomorrow for all. What steps will you take today to manage your energy use?
