Don't forget to switch off your lights!

Always switch off lights in the room

They may be more expensive to buy than traditional bulbs, but they are worth the investment as last over 10 times longer and use up to 4 times less energy. Where you would use a 100w ordinary bulb, you would only need a 20-25w energy saving bulb. With savings like this, changing bulbs throughout your house could really cut your electricity costs.

No matter what type of lighting you are using, always turn the lights off when you leave a room.

Leaving lights on

Leaving lights on is a pet hate of mine. I can't stand it when my partner leaves a room and doesn't turn the light off.

In the future it will be increasingly important to use our energy wisely so think before you leave the room!
