Electricity gives us comfort, but this comfort should not come at the expense of the environment at large or other animals.

I scaled my "Power to Save" posters to one page to conserve the printer's energy. As a bonus - they are also cute and mini.

According to PGE, "Water power, wind, solar, natural gas and a small amount of coal are all part of the diverse mix that makes up our energy generation facilities."

I had planned to save energy today by working with my computer off....but I couldn't get anything done. I will unplug my phone instead.

still finding lots of items that really serve no purpose and have been reading their usage. I share this with some folks. These are items they are not aware of and have been around for quite some time. Ghosts.

It is really interesting how much resources we waste and or take for granted when it is someone else picking up the tab. The cost of convenience is shocking.

It's going to be hot today, so I closed all the windows, blinds, shutters and curtains today before I left.

I opened all the windows and let the wind blow through my house...for free! No energy required.

I'm going to turn off my overhead lights and change my tiny desk lamp to an LED bulb.

looked into solar at home, at best, offered net zero.
