eco Vampire: Tip #3

Sometimes things seem so simple! But our busy lives make us forget some of the simplest things! That's why RECYCLE ME is happy to share our eco Vampire tips this month to help you reduce your impact on the environment, particularly your impact via vampiring electronics.

Yes, I said it, vampiring electronics, or those electronic items you leave plugged in and even when they are off, they are slowly sucking out electricity! Our own eco Vampire, Kimberly "Fang" has put together some tips she personally uses in her life:

Tip #3: When leaving home for more than 4 hours, raise the thermostat 5 to 10 degrees in summer and lower it 5 to 10 degrees in winter. Do the same at night before going to bed.

I know Mrs. Fang has completely changed her electric bill. She's an inspiration! And, Mrs. Fang personally designed RECYCLE ME's eco Vampire shirt. She says, "there's more than one way to be an eco Vampire!"
