Almost all electronic products (computers, printers, modems, scanners, stereo player, DVD player, etc.) draw an idle electrical current even after they have been turned off. If you use a power strip with a power button as a central "turn off" point, you can save a lot of energy and money, too.

If you leave the room for more than fifteen minutes, just turn the lights off. This will be a really small step to save power, save money and to save the environment.

A few minutes before your food is cooked completely, turn off the burner or oven to allow the heat in the pot or the pan to continue the cooking.

Cover pans and pots

Cover pots and pans with tight-fitting covers while cooking to prevent heat loss. If you do, they will boil a lot quicker and you will save energy and money.
