How can you save energy at home or decrease using electricity?

1.Turn off all electrical devices when they are not in use - that's the television, the video, the DVD player, the stereo, the computer, and so on.
2.Use less hot water - for instance, have a shower rather than bath, install a low flow showerhead, and wash clothes in cold or warm water.
3.Replace a regular incandescent light bulb with a compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) - CFLs use 60% less energy than a regular bulb.
4.Recycle more - paper, glass, tins, vegetable waste, garden cuttings can all be recycled.
5.Avoid products with a lot of packing - you'll only throw it away.
6.Drive less - walk, cycle or use public transport when you can.

Wash economically. Only use the washing machine when you have collected a full load. If you must wash a partial load, use the economy or half load setting. Reuse water coming out of the tap that would drain otherwise. When you turn on the tap to wait for hot water, for example, put a container under the tap until the water is warm enough and then use the water in the container to water plants or use for other purposes.

You have to be more concerned about the electricity. So we need to save the energy when we use. For me when I'm at home or wherever, I usually take care of appliances and use less energy. Hence, I have many means to save the energy.
1. Turn down the thermostat. Turning your thermostat down by just 1 degree can reduce your energy consumption by over 5%. You won't even notice the difference in room temperature. On the same note, don't heat rooms when you are not using them.
2. Decrease the hot water temperature. Your hot water thermostat needn't be higher than 60 degrees centigrade (140 degrees Fahrenheit). Any higher and you will only be mixing it with cold water to cool it back down for use.
3. Wash economically. Only use the washing machine when you have collected a full load. If you must wash a partial load, use the economy or half load setting. Also, modern washers work just as effectively at 40 degrees Centigrade (100 F) as they do at 60 (140 F), but the reduced temperature will make a difference in terms of energy used.
4. Reuse water coming out of the tap that would drain otherwise. When you turn on the tap to wait for hot water, for example, put a container under the tap until the water is warm enough and then use the water in the container to water plants or use for other purposes.
5. Turn off appliances and lighting. Turn off any appliances you are not using, especially by switching off lights when you leave the room. Don't leave fridge or freezer doors open for longer than necessary, and don't forget that your freezer needs to be defrosted regularly for it to run efficiently
6. Use energy-efficient appliances. From light bulbs to kitchen goods to home entertainment equipment, there are a plethora of energy-efficient appliances now on the market. Amazingly, they can use 50 percent less than other models, and up to a quarter less for light bulbs.

It's very easy to save energy t home.
Use sunlight wisely. During the heating season, leave shades and blinds open on sunny days,
but close them at night to reduce the amount of heat lost through windows.
Close shades and blinds during the summer or when the air conditioner is in use
or will be in use later in the day.
nplug seldom-used appliances, like an extra refrigerator in the basement
or garage that contains just a few items.

first of all, you can use electricity when needed.
You could use fire less, instead of using the air conditioner
and you should open the window pane and let the natural breeze
keep you cool. It is also healthy for you, the natural breeze.
You can spend time doing outdoor activities and productive work
instead of sitting on your computer or mac all day. thats about it.
if u really want to reduce global warming, convince other people
by going house by house and convince them by an interesting lecture.

I cannot say how to save the energy at my home.
I am the one who exhausts the energy and causes the electric bill higher every month.
When I live at my home, I will make my laptop always online all day to download games.
So this behavior consumes much energy.
However, I help my parents to reduce using money for buying food.
I often get up at noon so I often skip having a breakfast,too.

When you go away on a trip, be sure to unplug these same machines because they have stand-by functions that consume electricity even when they are turned off.

Home appliances
Turn your refrigerator down. Refrigerators account for about 20% of Household electricity use. Make sure that its energy saver switch is turned on. Also, check the gaskets around your refrigerator/freezer doors to make sure they are clean and sealed tightly.
