Saving Energy: The Basics

Here's a list of resources on how to save energy. To start, I'm just going to list some no brainers that my dad always pounded into our heads growing up:

1. Turn out the lights when you leave the room

2. Don't leave the water running

3. Drive at or under the speed limit

4. Eat fruits and vegetables (think how much energy it takes to make the box and the plastic wrap that something like Oreos, Pop Tarts or Snickerdoodles come in)

5. Walk
