Minimize Your Impact, Save Money

http://repoweramerica.org/take-action/minimize-your-impact-save-money/

You can take steps to help Repower America each and every day. Make your own switch to energy efficient appliances, power generated by renewable energy, and cleaner sources of personal transportation. With all of us working together, we can build a movement to Repower America.
Change a Light Bulb

Replacing one regular light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb will save 150 pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
Drive Less

Walk, bike, carpool or take mass transit more often. You’ll save one pound of carbon dioxide for every mile you don’t drive.
Recycle More

You can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide per year by recycling just half of your household waste.
Check Your Tires

Keeping your tires inflated properly can improve gas mileage by more than three percent. Every gallon of gasoline saved keeps 20 pounds of carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
Use Less Hot Water

It takes a lot of energy to heat water. Use less hot water by installing a low flow showerhead (350 pounds of CO2 saved per year) and washing your clothes in cold or warm water (500 pounds saved every year).
Avoid Products With a Lot of Packaging

You can save 1,200 pounds of carbon dioxide if you cut down your garbage by 10 percent.
Adjust Your Thermostat

Move your thermostat down just two degrees in winter and up two degrees in summer. You could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide a year with this simple adjustment.
Plant a Tree

A single tree will absorb one ton of carbon dioxide over its lifetime.
Turn off electronic devices

Simply turning off your television, DVD player, stereo, and computer when you’re not using them will save you thousands of pounds of carbon dioxide a year.
