After the announcement recently that UK was top of the European league of energy waste, this week happens to be Energy Saving Week.
Tips from the Energy Saving Trust:
Monday:
Buy better day
This should not be valid only for appliances. Buying bulk with less packaging also contributes towards using less energy.
Tuesday:
Boil better day
Why on earth do some people boil 1.5 litres of water to make a 25 cl cup of tea/coffee????
Wednesday:
Green wheels day
Do all car owners need a car?
Thursday
Turn to 30 day
I wish our washing-machine had a 30 degrees programme! And a cold wash programme. I really hate hand-washing woollen pullovers!!!
Friday
Light savers day
Some light-saving bulbs take ages to come on completely which is sometimes annoying, but great when you wake up in the middle of the night: no getting blind by switching the light on!
And for the most committed of you, have a look at ECOTRICITY.
