Compact
Fluorescent Light (CFL) bulbs are up to four times more
efficient than starndard incandescent bulbs.
A
25-watt CFL will produce as much light as a 100-watt
incandescent. Left on for 5 hours a day, it will save
135 kwh of electricity annually and prevent about 193
lbs of carbon dioxide emissions.

EnergyStar appliances |

Appliances
that have qualified for the U.S. EPA EnergyStar label
use 10-50% less energy than conventional models. Households
with EnergyStar appliances save an average of $80 per
year in electricity costs.
Saving
energy helps the environment too. If just one in ten
U.S. households switched to EnergyStar appliances, it
would have the same reduction in carbon dioxide as planting
1.7 million acres of new forest.
