19. Save Energy at Home Saving energy at home will reduce carbon emissions
and could also save you a lot of money each year.
There are lots of ways to save energy at home, Here
is some advice.
In the kitchen:
When you boil you kettle, make sure you boil only as much water as you need.
Cover pots when cooking-they will boil a lot quicker.
Using a microwave to cook or heat up small amounts of food is much more efficient way of cooking.
Let your hot food cool down before placing it in the fridge.
Try not to leave your fridge door open, as it takes energy to cool down again.

20. Lights and electrical appliances
Try to remember to turn off the lights when you leave a room for more than a few minutes. Also, think about whether you need the lights on the first place.
Replace all the traditional light bulbs in your home with energy-saving ones.
Turn off the TV or computer when you are not using them-avoid leaving them on standby as this wastes energy.
Make sure you have a full load before you use the washing machine. Your washing machine uses energy and water more efficiently when it’s full.
If you are planning on buying new electrical appliances, look out for energy-saving ones.
