Why is it that we love to wait?
We wait in lines at the movies -- well, don't we?
We wait in lines at the grocery store, the gas-station, and even on the on-ramps to get onto the highway.
Well this is one time we can take control: We don't have to wait.
But while you're not waiting, don't waste.
We don't only need to recycle, reduce and reuse, we can go beyond the boundaries of "normal" and precycle.
We can all save natural resources, energy, and reduce our carbon emissions by simply thinking ahead. And, if we all do a little, it will do a lot.
Think green and save energy.
• HOW MUCH ENERGY DO YOU USE? It's pretty easy to find out. Simply call your local energy company and ask. Then ask for some helpful hints, tips and even money saving programs that might inspire you to think outside the box, the energy meter box.
• GET AN ENERGY AUDIT. Most energy companies will provide an energy audit or give you options for companies to choose between.
• GET RID OF OLD APPLICANCES. You might save more money than just on your energy bill. Sometimes you get a tax break for buying energy efficient appliances. It’s worth checking out.
BE PROACTIVE AND PRECYCLE!
