ReplyDeleteThe graph used in this post is interesting, I didn't think that heating our homes and water used so much electricity, I knew it was a lot but not as high as it is. Also that electronics and computers uses as much as lighting and more than refrigeration.
ReplyDeleteI think you could have included a bit more information from the website, and I also agree that your citations are lacking a bit. But overall it was good.
That’s a really thoughtful article on 5 Ways to Save Energy In Your Home. I appreciate how it breaks down simple yet effective steps that anyone can start applying right away. Energy saving is not just about lowering bills, but also about building habits that are better for the environment in the long run. One thing I’ve personally found useful is adding wall mounted solar lights around the house. They cut down on electricity use while also improving outdoor safety and ambiance. It’s small changes like these, combined with the tips you mentioned, that really add up over time. Thanks for sharing such practical advice!
