Green Tips

Trier par:
 
Remove everything you don’t need from your car trunk. For every 30 kilos in the trunk, your fuel consumption increases by 2%. So by decreasing useless weight, you save on gas! @ Simple Green Action
 
Remove items such as roof and bikes racks from your car if not in use as they cause air drag. You will increase performance and save on fuel consumption. @ Simple Green Action
 
For every 8 km/h you reduce highway speed, you can reduce around 7% of your fuel consumption. @ Simple Green Action
 
Align your tires. A misaligned tire will use around two per cent more fuel and can cause premature tire wear. @ Simple Green Action
 
Set a reminder to check your tires’ pressure the first of every month to ensure they are fully inflated and automatically save on gas. @ Simple Green Action
 
Send extra hangers to your local dry cleaners instead of keeping them for too long. @ Simple Green Action
 
Check to make sure your refrigerator door seals correctly when it closes so that you don’t consume extra energy to keep things cool. @ Simple Green Action
 
A bulb's dust-free has more brightness. Take the habit to regularly dust! @ Simple Green Action
 
Buy recycled whenever you can and check for used texbooks before buying a new one. @ Simple Green Action
 
Think of buying reutilizable juice container instead of always buying small containers. @ Simple Green Action
