-> Replace incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescents.
-> Air dry dishes instead of using the dishwasher drying cycle.
-> Use your microwave instead of a conventional electric range or oven.
-> Turn off your computer and monitor when not in use.
-> Plug home electronics, such as TVs and VCRs, into power strips and turn power strips off when equipment is not in use.
