Pledge Text

Because I care about protecting the environment while saving money, I pledge to increase my home's energy efficiency.

I will:

1. Change five frequently used lightbulbs or light fixtures to compact fluorescents or other ENERGY STAR-labeled products.

2. Install a programmable thermostat to consistently control my home's temperature and avoid unneeded heating and cooling at night and when I'm not at home.

3. Use sleep-mode on my computer and turn off my computer and other appliances when not using them.

4. Look for ENERGY STAR labeled products when shopping for appliances, home electronics, windows, doors and heating and cooling equipment.

5. Tell my family, friends and colleagues about the benefits of energy efficiency.
