Every October, we celebrate, along with the nation, Energy Action Month. Its call on us is simple, take action. With all the energy we use on a daily basis, it’s a good idea to step back from time to time and see where we can save energy for future generations. We don’t want to use up all of our resources before our kids, grandkids, and great grandkids get to enjoy them. From what the Residential Energy Consumption Survey tells us, we are using more energy than we ever have before! Here at GreenHomes America, we focus primarily on home energy. Each homeowner has an opportunity to not only save energy, but also save money. For example, if you use a programmable thermostat, you will save energy and an estimated $180 a year. There are more examples like this one on our Energy Action Month fact sheet.
The first step, though, is to find out where your home is using and losing energy with a home energy audit. From there, you can join the forces in saving energy and save money while you’re at it.
Share this post with anyone who owns a home. Help save energy and help them save money.
Thanks for stopping by!
