How to Win Conservation Cup:
Turn off the Lights
Whenever you leave a room, or even during the day when you can use natural light, keep the lights off and save some energy!
Turn off your computer (or at least let it sleep)
Unless you Facebook when you sleep, there’s no need for your computer while you’re dozing. Turn it off before bed and when you leave it in your room.
Unplug things
Don’t let your appliances be energy vampires! Unplug things like microwaves, printers and speakers when you’re not using them. Get a power strip to make it easy – just turn everything off and on at the flip of a switch!
Take shorter showers
Just try it once – cut a minute or two off of your daily shower. It will give you more free time!
Do full loads of laundry
Think about it – not only will you save both energy and water at once, but you’ll have to do laundry less often.
