My ABC's of Saving Energy (without spending much money) 

In the real world most of us do not live in air tight houses; we leave the water running; the kids leave the refrigerator open and we forget to turn the oven off overnight. We do not even reflect on these habits when we look an an electric bill that is approaching a monthly car payment. 

The three attachments are pretty simple steps that we can all take to conserve our resources. Changing habits is tough (look at how long it took a lot of us to stop smoking). But our bad habits are hard on our environment and the toll that they are taking affects all of us. 

I organized this material with a lot of research and it is copyrighted. Please share it with anyone you know as long as it is transferred intact.   Susan Pomerantz, 302.339.6024
