It is summer once again, and like you would expect, it is that time when it really matters to save energy. Still you will be surprised by the energy that is still wasted on unnecessary trips on roads and broken or inefficient air conditioners.

What many do not know is that choosing to have an eco friendly holiday is choosing to save money hence making it affordable.

As long as you are still comfortable, you should save more energy by having your air conditioner at a few degrees higher than you normally would. Do this by calibrating your thermostat to run at that higher temperature to save energy.

You can go a level higher and choose to have an air conditioner that is Energy Star rated. It will normally perform the required services with much less energy.

It does not matter if you are running on a tight budget. Jumping to this next level is an investment because it will help you save money, considering energy costs that balloon by the day.

Eco friendly summers can be achieved by reducing the frequency of trips you take in your car. You will not only save energy but you will also have a much more organized lifestyle. In this sense, you will achieve two ends at one shot.
