HOW TO SAVE ENERGY
Turn off all electrical devices when they are not in use
Turn down the thermostat a little - you'll survive even if you need to wear slighter warmer clothing.

Insulate your home - lots of heat is lost through the roof and walls, so lay fibre glass in your roof or loft and organise cavity wall insulation.
Use less hot water - for instance, have a shower rather than bath, install a low flow showerhead, and wash clothes in cold or warm water.
Replace a regular incandescent light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) - CFLs use 60% less energy than a regular bulb.
Use a clothes line rather than a tumble dryer - it might take a little longer, but it's kinder to the environment.
Recycle more - paper, glass, tins, vegetable waste, garden cuttings can all be recycled.
Avoid products with a lot of packing - you'll only throw it away.
Keep your tyres properly inflated - proper inflation can improve petrol mileage by more than 3%.
Drive less - walk, cycle or use public transport when you can.
Fly less - use the train when you can.
Try to travel less - for instance, use teleconferencing in your work.
