Thank you

What have you learned? Which age category emits the most carbon dioxide Under 30’s Over 70’s

In a house with no insulation, where is most of the heat lost? Through the floor? Through the walls? Through the roof?

Through the walls – if possible, always insulate.

How much energy consumed by the average washing machine is used to heat the water? Almost 90% Almost 70% Almost 60%

Which of these generates the least carbon emissions? 6 minute electric shower 6 minute shower from a gas fired combi boiler 6 minute bath

Turning the thermostat down by 1º can cut how much from the average heating bill? 5% 10% 15%

Is a kWh the same as a unit of gas?

How did the UK do? Overall, we made an energy saving of 5.62% And we saved… tonnes of CO²

What does that mean…? 1 tonne of CO2 = 3,001 miles in a car 5,791 miles on a bus 10,321 miles on a train Or 57,000 cups of tea

2010 – 496 million tonnes of CO2 30% from home energy use Average carbon footprint of someone in UK is 15 tonnes of CO2 Energy use in home accounts for 3.2 tonnes of CO2

1 broadleaf tree left to grow for 100 years will absorb in the region of 1 tonne of CO2

What has made the savings…. Most people just wanted to save money Surprising increase in interest in environment Substantial increase in number of people who now always: turn lights off when they leave the room; Turn the TV off at the wall; only boil the amount of water needed; and Set the thermostat lower. Has been significant increase in number who feel more informed about energy efficiency in their home and their appliances.
