AMC Outdoors, November 2008

Paul Scheckel, author of Shrinking Your Carbon Footprint: 10 Steps to Reduce Your Home Energy Bill and Help the Environment in the November issue of AMC Outdoors, offers the following video tips:

Installing Faucet Aerators
Installing aerators on your household faucets is an easy way to save on your water bill and reduce your household water usage.

Should you Replace Your Refrigerator?
Assess your refrigerator's energy consumption and determine if a newer model may be more efficient.

Unplug Your Appliances
Consider plugging your home entertainment center into a single power strip that can be turned off when not in use, so "phantom power" cannot be drawn.
