How You Can Conserve Energy
| Action | Fast Facts | |
| My outdoor lights are on a programmable timer or motion sensor, and have been upgraded with energy effcient light fixtures. | • Better yet, upgrade to solar powered lights which charge their batteries during the day, come on at night, and don’t require any electricity from the grid. | |

| Trees and shrubs are planted around my house in such a way as to provide shade in the summer and shelter from the wind. | • Deciduous (leaf-shedding) trees and shrubs on the south side shade during the summer and allow sun through the winter. • Trees and shrubs can provide shelter from cold winds when strategically planted. |
