Sleep saves on energy

Sleeping is another way to save on energy bills


I came across this article  at sleepzine. It is a brief explanation on how you can save money on electricity by sleeping, now I have never met anyone who has needed an incentive to sleep but here is one if I ever do.

A more conventional method saving money on your electricity, gas and general power bills is to change providers. Energy watch has a list of providers for you here or you can try search on google for one of the bigger suppliers, such Atlantic.

UK: Energy farms blocked

Lewis residents block wind farm

 

Locals of Lewis, bombarded the Scottish Executive with 5000 letters causing the Executive to intervene and block the proposed 181 wind energy turbines. The grounds for protest where that of social-economic ruin and endangering local wild life.

 

The effects that this has on the rest of the country are that it may increase the difficulty for future projects of this nature, this having a knock on effect on the green house gas emissions. It may also lead to increased prices for green energy, however this is dependant on the energy providers - http://www.southern-electric.co.uk/Features/Feature.aspx?id=6888 .
