Ways to reduce your carbon footprint. 5 simple ways to reduce your carbon foot print within the home.

Change your light bulbs “If you change only 25 percent of your home's bulbs, you can cut a lighting bill in half, the Environmental Protection Agency estimates. Incandescent bulbs waste 90 percent of their energy as heat, and compact fluorescents, which can be up to five times more efficient, last years longer as well.“

Get a new refrigerator “Kitchen appliances consume 27 percent of the average American household's electricity. More than half of that goes to your refrigerator. So any fridge more than 10 years old is worth getting rid of, says The Monitor. And don't just put it in the basement and plug it in. It's not going to be anymore energy efficient down there.”

Power strips “Plugging electronics into power strips, which can then be turned off, will further increase savings, by decreasing "phantom loads." (Even in the "off" position, electronic gear often continues to draw small amounts of electricity.)”

Find a roommate “A study by SMR Research has found that single- person households have grown by more than 350% since People who live alone use 18.4% more energy than two-person households and 52.8% more than three-person households. If you're living alone, you can dramatically reduce your home carbon footprint by taking on a roommate and finding a cheap apartment”

Water-Conserving Showerheads & Toilets “You can reduce water and heating costs, even in your bathroom. To save even more water, turn the faucet off when brushing or shaving. These simple changes and steps can save many thousands of gallons of water annually.“
