Save energy
Use more energy-efficient products in your home,
business, and place of worship. Walk, bicycle,
carpool or bus more. Purchase more energy-efficient
vehicles. Use the sun and wind to dry your laundry
instead of gas or electric clothes dryers. Advocate
for renewable energy sources so that we can lessen
our dependence on less environmentally friendly
technologies.
Less carbon dioxide, coal, mercury and other
toxic emissions from fossil-burning vehicles, power
plants, and household products means cleaner air,
water, and soil. Fewer hydroelectric dams and
nuclear power plants means rivers that can run free
again. If everyone took simple steps to conserve,
it would add up to a major savings.
