9. Use A or A+ household appliances

I think the title of this post tells you all. If you are using old household appliances (e.g. refrigerator, washing machine, dishwasher…) do consider buying new ones with energy sign A or A+. Old machines (5 or more years old) have no energy sign at all or have energy sign C or D … those machines are bad machines swallowing energy with big spoon. Important: Don’t throw old machines anywhere!!

Impact: reduce electricity consumption, reduce energy bill, and reduce pollution

8. Is you water overheated?

Check water heater temperature. In normal conditions and for normal use it is enough to warm up water in a water heater up to 50 – 60 degrees Celsius. It is also recommended to heat water up to 70 – 80 degrees Celsius from time to time, but these temperatures are too high and should not be used on a daily basis.

Impact: reduce electricity (energy) consumption, prevent burning your self

7. Save water in a toilet

After your job in a toilet is completed, be careful how you flush. Use minimum water for flushing things away. The best option is to have two buttons for flushing, one for e.g. 2 – 4 liters of water and another button for 6 – 9 liters of water.

Impact: reduce water consumption

6. Avoid sudden car stops or accelerations

Always observe cars in front of your car and try to foresee situations that could happen. If you do so, you will be able to drive your car without sudden stops or accelerations. Sudden stops and accelerations use much more fuel than driving moderate. Now you know why fuel consumption is so high when you are in town and totally nervous – full throttle, full brake.

Impact: reduce fuel consumption, reduce pollution in the city

5. Separating paper from other waste

Factories for producing paper have to use a lot of clean water, energy and destroy many trees in our neighborhood. If you want to change this, buy wastepaper basket only for paper and start separating paper from other waste. Most sorts of paper are recyclable and could be used for paper production with less energy and less destroyed trees.
Impact: save trees, reduce energy, act green

4. Use pot lid when cooking

Energy for cooking comes mostly directly from fossil fuels (gas) or from electricity, that could also be generated from fossil fuels (coal power plant). If using pot lids when cooking, you will use less energy.
Impact: reduce energy consumption, reduce pollution, and reduce household bills for energy
