Cutting home energy costs in half

Ecospace has a cool posting about a single woman who cut her home energy costs in half by simple methods and sitting through a few lectures (or you could read a few blogs and eco-websites).

Since she lives alone she’s able to push for the cheapest option (like setting the water heater to its lowest setting), and this woman was willing to do things like tackle her own plumbing and attic ventilation, but there’s definitely something to learn from this. She saved loads of money over having a contractor or handyman come in to do simple electrical and insulation jobs, and she’s saving money overall with the lower electricity bills.

It’s a good read - give it a shot if you’re concerned about the rising costs of fuel and gas!
