Living Gently: Using Appliances as Little as Possible

Ecology Action Alliance suggests our taking the following measures to keep our electricity usage to a minimum:
  • I will buy/utilize hand-powered appliances and tools whenever possible.
  • I will make a sustained effort to turn off appliances and lights that are not in use.
  • I will contract for a home energy audit by my utility company.
  • I will use natural light and ventilation (windows!) whenever possible.
