By consistently turning off lights, electronics, and appliances when I'm not using them, I'm helping to save energy. This small action makes a big difference in reducing my environmental impact and living a more sustainable life. I have gotten into the habit of unplugging things such as TVs when not using them because we learned that they still use a little energy when they are plugged in but off. I now only turn on the lights when I need them, and have been using natural lighting to my advantage. Overall, it feels good and I’m saving money too so it’s a win win!

I have been working on turning lights off when I'm not using them and unplugging things that are not being used. That way we are not only saving energy, we are also saving money on our utility bill even though it can be a little dark!
