Episode 1 - Home Efficiencies

Start saving energy, one simple action at a time. It all adds up to a healthier planet.

Start saving energy, one simple action at a time. It all adds up to a healthier planet. Let’s consider home efficiencies. Our little actions around the house can have a big impact on energy savings.

For example, replacing an old-fashioned incandescent light bulb with a modern compact fluorescent light bulb – you know, those swirly things - will cut energy use by 75 percent. And compact fluorescent bulbs last up to ten times longer than an incandescent. Even more energy savings come from simply remembering to turn off lights, television and computer when not in use. It’s all up to you. Click on the Help Our World (HOW) video to learn more.
