Clean dryer lint traps before each load. Line-dry clothes when you can. Use microwave and toaster ovens whenever possible for cooking or heating small portions. Cook more than one item at a time if you must use the oven. Use flat-bottomed cooking pans for best contact with the heat, with tight lids to keep steam in.
Pressure cookers use much less energy than ordinary pots and pans.
Use less water for cooking, using lowest possible heat to maintain boiling or steaming. Keep pools and spas covered and heat off or on low when not in use. Run garbage disposals only with cold water. WORK Turn off computers, printers, copy machines, shredders and other office equipment when leaving for the day. Use task lighting at desks rather than overhead lights.
