Don’t forget to help others conserve energy and save money by sharing this page.Mythbusting Fact #1:
Turning off lights, even for short periods of time, really saves energy, with little impact on the lifespan of the bulb. Turn off the lights even when you’re leaving a room for just a few minutes.

Energy Mythbuster #1
Over the next few weeks we’ll be busting energy myths (compliments of ACEEE, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy). From debating which refrigerator/freezer style is more energy efficient to how often you should have your air conditioning unit tuned up, we’ll be separating facts from those oh-so-not-true energy wasting myths.

Mythbusters are a great way to educate the public about green issues in a fun and interesting way. I really like this first mythbuster, because it's something that everyone can do, and it doesn't take any extra time or money. Think of the impact it could have if everyone started switching off the lights when they left a room. This is a great blog, I look forward to your future posts!
