20 free ways to save energy
from Consumer Reports' "Complete Guide to Reducing Energy Costs"

"As the cost of heating your home and running your car continues to climb, we hope this book will help ease the burden on you and your family. And it's nice to know that saving energy does more than save you money: It helps save resources. Using less energy pollutes less, creates less acid rain, and results in less global warming. Even if you do nothing more than the 20 free things listed here, you will have made a difference in your budget and a difference in the world. Not bad for free."

Check out the list at http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/appliances/news/20-free-ways-to-save-energy-9-06/overview/20-free-ways-to-save-energy_ov.htm

Thanks for the link. The only one I'd have a problem with changing is using the microwave more often instead of the oven. I rarely use the micrwave, not even to boil water! I'm just a gas stove and oven kind of girl.

Blessings
Catherine

Me too, Catherine - I refuse to even own a microwave.
