Reduce Your Carbon Footprint & Save Money

Having two young children I am starting to fear what their life will be like in 20 – 30 years, especially if we don’t try to do something about the current state the environment is in. Thankfully there is an environmental entrepreneur here in Australia – Jean Cannon, who is trying to do something about the environment along with teaching others how you can “Reduce Your Carbon Footprint” both at work and home. At the same time Jean can train and guide you on how you can save money by following her small simple steps.

After reading “Reduce Your Carbon Footprint” by Jean Cannon, I started putting into place some of her suggestions around the home (which also includes my office area). My hot water system was on the way out so I upgraded to a new one. My fridge (which was very ancient) was replaced with a more energy efficient one. I have blinds around the home so during the day they get opened to let the natural light in and NO lights need to be turned on. Power points get turned off when they are not being used, for example the kettle, power points in kids rooms, washing machine etc. These are small things that don’t take a great deal of time or effort to do.

After putting these simple procedures into place I nearly fainted when I got my next electricity bill. It was $200 less than what it had previously been over the past couple of years.
