Question

How can we are save the electricty?

Answer 1

We make electricity.  We use different forms of energy to make it--such as burning fossil fuels or using dams to produce hydroelectric energy.

We don't need to worry about running out of electricity.  We need to be concerned with being good stewards of the nonrenewable energy sources that we use to make electricity, and find alternative, renewable energy sources.

Answer 2

some simple everydays would be turning off the lights, or the tv when someone isnt using it. You can also change ur lightbulbs to energy saver ones.

Answer 3

use energy star appliances and change to csc lightbulbs!Turn up the thermostat and use ceiling fans. You you'd be suprised how much it helps!

Answer 4

You'll save more electricity by dealing with the biggest electricity-guzzlers rather than worrying about items that don't use much electricity. Here is a list of things in the home that are big energy users (well they are in my house) :)

Air Conditioning

Heating (if you have electric heat)

Electric Water Heater

Electric Clothes Dryer

Lighting (if you're not already using fluorescents)

Refrigerator (if it was made before 2001)

Here's some tips that I can of...

(1) Use space heaters to heat only the rooms you're in, rather than a central system that heats the whole house, and turning off the heat when you're not home.

(2) Use ceiling fans instead of the air conditioner if you don't already have ceiling fans.

(3) Use a clothesline or a laundry rack instead of a dryer.

(4a) Wash laundry in cold water instead of hot.



(4b) Wash laundry in warm water instead of hot.



(5) Use a spin dryer to dry your clothes.



(6) Replace regular light bulbs with compact fluorescents.

(7) Sleep your computer when you're not using it.



Good luck I hope this helps! :)
