BRING THE LIGHT IN!

The days are getting shorter and we switch the lights on earlier and earlier.
  • By cleaning the windows and washing the curtains, or opening them, I let more natural light in and need to turn on less.
  • Dusting the bulbs regularly increases the brightness of my lighting.
  • To save electricity, I replace halogen bulbs with LEDs.
  • And of course, I turn off the lights when I'm not in the room!

To go further:
  • I encourage my employer to turn off desktops and monitors outside of office hours
  • I contact my town's syndic or mayor and ask them to reduce public lighting
  • I talk to my neighbors about the subject
  • I talk to the shop owners who keep their storefronts lit at night
