Making an Energy Difference in Your Home

Some ways you can make a difference include:

• Energy-efficient choices such as ENERGY STAR can save families up to a third on their energy bills, with similar savings of greenhouse gas emissions, without sacrificing style or comfort.
• The average household spends as much as $500 per year on its water and sewer bill but could save about $170 per year by retrofitting with water-efficient fixtures and incorporating water-saving practices.
• Consumers can purchase Design for the Environment-labeled cleaning products and know they are buying products that are safer for their families and the environment.
• By driving a SmartWay certified vehicle, your vehicle will emit fewer air pollution-causing emissions while saving money on fuel costs.
