Every little change helps when it comes to protecting our planet. By making small adjustments to our daily routines, we can significantly reduce our energy consumption and carbon footprint. From adjusting thermostats to unplugging electronics, there are countless ways to conserve energy. Here are a few simple tips that you can easily incorporate into your daily routine:

• Adjust your thermostat: Set your air conditioning unit to 24°C (75°F) for comfort and energy savings.
• Switch off the lights when not in use: Turn off lights when they are not needed to save energy and extend the lifespan of light bulbs, reducing replacement and maintenance costs.
• Pull the curtains: Reduce the transfer of heat from outside to indoors, keeping rooms cooler.
• Carpool or use public transit: Share rides or use public transportation to reduce pollution and fuel use.
• Take shorter showers: Reduce time spent in the shower to save water and energy.
• Turn off electronics completely: Prevent standby power usage by turning off electrical appliances completely, especially connected devices.
• Optimize lighting: Use energy-efficient LED bulbs to reduce energy consumption.
• External doors: Keeping the external doors closed to prevent wasting energy, and stops hot humid air from getting in.

By incorporating these practices into our lives and homes, we can collectively make a positive impact on the environment and create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
