Save it

It’s important to try to use only the amount of energy you need. This saves your parents money on their electric bill, and it helps save the Earth. By just using the amount that you need and not wasting energy, you can make a difference!

There are three ways you can help save energy in your house, and they are easy to remember. All you have to do is close it, turn it off, and tell someone.

Close it

Anytime you open something, you should be sure to close it when you are finished. The refrigerator door is one area where energy is wasted. Before you open the refrigerator, know what it is you want to get out. Then open the door, get it out and close the door. Leaving it open while you search for something to eat wastes a lot of energy.

Windows and doors left open can also waste energy. It takes a lot of electricity to cool down your house, especially in the hot Arizona summer.
