Hello!  

We’ve been talking about the ways we can save energy around Dingley Village! 

Here are some things we can do to help: 

  • Turn off lights behind you
  • Open your blinds instead of using lights
  • Open windows instead of using fans or air conditioners for cool air
  • Wash clothes in cold water, instead of hot
  • Put your heater at a lower temperature
  • Make sure to turn off taps and don’t leave the taps running
  • Turn powerpoints off if you’re not using them
  • Compost or recycle your waste, if possible
  • Have short showers, and make sure you turn off the tap properly
  • Never leave the fridge open
  • Walk, ride or run to school, instead of driving
  • Rug up or use a hot water bottle instead of using your heating at home
  • Keep windows and doors closed whilst you’ve got your heating on
  • Check your fridge is set between 3-5 degrees and freezers are set at -15 degrees to save energy
  • Use solar power, if you can

Make it a goal to use one of these strategies this week, and every week! 

Thank you!
