What can you do on a DAILY basis to conserve energy?
· Turn off your room lights. Don’t leave lights on when no one is in the room. Rely on natural light whenever appropriate.
· Turn off your computer, monitor, local printer and speakers at the end of each day. Remember, logging off is not the same as shutting down.
· Close your door. Whenever air conditioning or heating is in use, keep doors and windows closed.
· Make sure air vents are not blocked by furniture or other obstructions.
· Dress for the weather. Warm clothes in winter, lighter clothes in spring.
· Limit use of plug-ins such as heaters, fans, coffee makers, mini-refrigerators, etc.
