What to do?


What should be done to reduce the efects of global warming?


-Recycle your potentially recyclable material (paper, plastic, metal and
glass).
-If you need to replace your windows, install the best energy-saving
models.
-Insulate your walls and ceilings; this can save about 25% of home
heating bills.
-Use your most fuel efficient vehicle for most trips and the larger, less
fuel efficient one only when needed.
-Reduce waste: Buy minimally packaged goods; choose reusable products
over disposable ones; recycle.
-When you buy a car, choose one that gets good gas mileage.
-Whenever possible, walk bike, carpool or use mass transit.
-Install low-flow shower heads to use less hot water.
-Buy energy-efficient compact fluorescent bulbs for your most-used lights.
-Clean or replace air filters as recommended. Cleaning a dirty air
conditioner filter can save 15% of the energy used.
-Don’t overheat or overcool rooms. Adjust your thermostat (Lowe in
winter, higher in summer).
-Wash your clothes in warm or cold water, not hot.
-Run your dishwasher only with a full load. Use the energy-saving
setting to dry the dishes. Don’t use heat when drying.
-Dont use produts with cfc's.

Is time to act with little things people!
