Save Energy
It is hard to imagine life without electricity. In our homes, we rely on it to power our lights, appliances, and electronics. Many of us also use electricity to provide our homes with hot water, heat, and air conditioning (McAllister et al., 2005).
There are many ways kids can save energy and some of them are:
Set your home’s thermostat a few degrees lower
Turn off lights and all electronics
Turning light off
Open your blinds on sunny winter days to let the sun warm up your home
Packing and "Eco" lunch
Close doors to keep rooms warm
Did you know that a large screen television turned on for 6 hours a day can generate half a tonne of greenhouse gas a year?
