Save money by changing your old energy habits...

75 % of the power used by home electronics is consumed while they are switched off - prevent this by plugging them into power bars and flicking the off-switch to cut power to the appliances. Unplug battery-chargers when batteries are fully charged or aren't in use. Install white window shades or blinds to reflect summer heat from your house. A well-positioned tree can save up to 25% on cooling costs by shading windows. These ideas from the The Office of Energy Efficiency - Ontario, Canada.
