We promise:

1.We Will Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Do your part to reduce waste by choosing reusable products instead of disposables. Buying products with minimal packaging (including the economy size when that makes sense for you) will help to reduce waste. And whenever you can, recycle paper, plastic, newspaper, glass and aluminum cans.

2. We Will Use Less Heat and Air Conditioning

Adding insulation to your walls and attic, and installing weather stripping or caulking around doors and windows can lower your heating costs more than 25 percent, by reducing the amount of energy you need to heat and cool your home.

3. We Will Change a Light Bulb

Wherever practical, replace regular light bulbs with compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs. Replacing just one 60-watt incandescent light bulb with a CFL will save you $30 over the life of the bulb. CFLs also last 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs, use two-thirds less energy, and give off 70 percent less heat.

4. We Will Drive Less and Drive Smart

5. We Will Buy Energy-Efficient Products

6. We Will Use Less Hot Water

7. We Will Plant a Tree

8. We Will Encourage Others to Conserve Share information about recycling and energy conservation with your friends, neighbours and co-workers, and take opportunities to encourage public officials to establish programs and policies that are good for the environment

Prometemos:

1.Reduciremos, reusaremos, reciclaremos.

Haga su parte para reducir el derroche, escogiendo los productos reutilizables en lugar de desechables. Comprar productos con el empaquetamiento mínimo (incluso el tamaño económico cuando eso tenga sentido para usted) ayudará reducir el derroche. Y siempre que usted pueda, recicle papel, plástico, periódicos, vasos y latas de aluminio.

2. Usaremos menos calor y aire acondicionado.

Añadir aislamiento a sus paredes y ático, e instalar burlete o sellado alrededor de las puertas y ventanas pueden reducir el coste de su calefacción más de un 25 por ciento, al reducir la cantidad de energía que usted necesita para calentar y refrescar su casa.

3. Cambiaremos una bombilla.

Práctico en cualquier momento, reemplace las bombillas clásicas por luz fluorescente compacta bombillas (LFC). Reemplazando simplemente una bombilla incandescente de 60 vatios por una LFC le ahorrará $30 a lo largo de la vida de la bombilla. Las LFCs también duran 10 veces más que las bombillas incandescentes, usan dos tercios menos de energía, y emiten un 70 por ciento menos calor.

4. Conduciremos menos y lo haremos de forma inteligente.

5. Compraremos Productos energéticamente eficaces.

6. Usaremos menos agua caliente.

7. Plantaremos un árbol.

8. Animaremos a otros a preservar.

Comparta la información sobre reciclaje y ahorro de energía con sus amigos, vecinos y colaboradores, y aproveche las oportunidades de animar a que los funcionarios públicos establezcan programas y políticas que sean buenas para el medioambiente.
