Change a light - replace your regular light bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulbs.

Drive less - walk, bike, carpool or take mass transit more often.

Recycle more

Check your tires - properly inflated tires can improve gas mileage.

Avoid products with a lot of packaging - cut down the amount of garbage you produce.

Adjust your thermostat 2 degrees - reduce your carbon dioxide emissions.

Plant a tree - a single tree absorbs one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.

Turn off electronic devices - save energy when you're not using them.

Change a Light

Switch your light bulbs to Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs)

Save energy by replacing your incandescent bulbs with Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs). A compact fluorescent light bulb is said to require 60-75% less energy than a regular bulb. Switching just one lighbulb will save about 300 lbs of carbon dioxide a year. Plus, CFLs are longer lasting than regular bulbs, so they save you money too.
