The Green Page
Something to start with. Check out this website. http://www.builditsolar.com/index.htm , It's full of
ideals and ways to save energy and money heating and cooling your home.
Here's another site.
http://www.motherearthnews.com/ I haven't had a chance to go through it yet.
TIP: Did you know that when you turn your tv , vcr, dvd off that they are actually still on and just in
standby(some look like they are off with no lights visible)? While in standby they are still using
electricity. If you plug these things into a strip with a power switch you can turn them off completely. This
could affect clocks and recording timers on the vcr though.
TIP: Do you use outside flood lights? Did you know that they are available in CFL? A 23 watt CFL bulb
puts out the same light as a standard 75 watt bulb. Make sure you get the ones for outdoor use!

You buy it by the 100kWh block for $1.50 over what
you pay for your electricity. So you can buy 1 or
more blocks. Or you can buy your whole bill from
what they told me for .015 cents per kWh over what
you are paying now. I took this option. Follow the link
above and call them with any questions.
