  1. Don't use s much water like in  showers, don't run water while brushing your teeth. Turn the tv off when its not being used, same with lights and appliances. Stuff like that.


  2. Jump on to those propagating Global Warming which is a lie that is costing us plenty.

  3. obvious ways

    turn off lights

    don't leave the water running

    turn off any electrical equipment when not in use

    follow the 3r's reduce reuse recycle

  4. start turning off lights you don't use, or better, use energy saving light bulbs. It will lower your bills and lasts longer. :]

    those are the swirly ones :]

  5. There are a number of things you can do.

    Without changing your source of energy, you could take shorer showers, unplug appliances when you are done with them, and attempt to use your appliances less.

    You can also switch to different sources of energy. Solar energy is very productive and can get you your money back in several years. Wind energy is another great source of energy. There are a number of small wind turbines that are on the market that are meant for resedential use. If you live in the appropriate area you could consider changing to geothermal, wave, or tidal power.

    You can also ask your current energy company if they provide green sources of energy and request them to supply it to your home.

  6. have power company pull meter!

  7. See if you can find a company that charges a flat month fee and yes do insulation and repairs but some times the repairs are costing more to in the long run new systems claim to save money but they don't so at this day and time might go back to old ways wood and coal.

  8. Jay,

    i use solar convection for 100% of my homes heating/cooling. basically think of a big green house on the south side of your home with black walls and black floor. there are vents on the top and bottum of the inside wall going into my house. when the air in the room heats up the hot air rises up threw the vents in the house, pullling in cooler air from my house. then at night i simply close the vents.

    i also use solar aic conditioning in the house. i have a big black metal box on the top of my home that heats up supper hot in the summer time. as hot air rises it sucks the warm  air that's collecting in my cieling, which creates a suction inside the house. i have vents on the floor that are pipes threw the dirt in the front yard which draw in the cool thermal air into the house.

    - start using renewable energy sources if an available option:  solar and wind can generate electricity for you
