The Energy Diet: Lose the Pounds (of CO2), Save Some Bucks
October 5, 2006
A quick lesson on how several small changes can pay big dividends in energy efficiency, "The Energy Diet" follows one man's quest to chop 1,000 pounds off of his carbon emission output. One degree on the thermostat and shutting unused lights off later, he's well on his way.
By combining small, unnoticable changes (like the thermostat) with breaking bad habits (like leaving unused lights on), the article shows all the ways that quick, easy changes add up to make a huge difference. Illustration: Elwood Smith
