Energy Conservation Tips
Did you know that the typical U.S. family spends close
to $1,300 a year on their home's utility bills? Unfortunately,
a large portion of that energy is wasted. The amount of
energy wasted just through poorly insulated windows and
doors is about as much energy as we get from the Alaskan
pipeline each year. And electricity generated by fossil
fuels for a single home puts more carbon dioxide into the
air than two average cars. By using a few inexpensive energy-efficient
measures, you can reduce your energy bills by 10% to 50%
and, at the same time, help reduce air pollution.
