How My Family Can Save Power (and the Planet) This Winter! First off we can start by turning off the lights at times where we are not using it, or we can reduce hot water use with shorter showers, and consider a water-saving shower head. For saving our planet we can Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: Minimize waste generation, reuse items whenever possible, and recycle materials to conserve resources and landfill space! And that’s how my family and I can save power and save the planet! I hope you learned something from my blog, and have a wonderful week!
