Elementary Part 1 Ready

At the end of the working day, don’t just log off. 
Switch your computer off completely. Look round 
your office to see what other equipment you can 
switch off. If you switch off the equipment in an 
office overnight you will save enough energy to 
run a small car for 100 miles. 
After your evening meal you will need to wash 
the dishes. You probably think that a dishwasher 
uses more water than washing the dishes by 
hand. This is not true. Washing dishes by hand 
can use as much as 150 litres of water a day, 
while a dishwasher can use as little as 10 litres. 
A dishwasher will, of course, use more electricity 
though, so only use it if it is full. 
If you wash your dishes by hand or use a 
dishwasher, try to use an environmentally friendly 
detergent. A number of companies now produce 
natural washing up liquids. These products don’t 
pollute rivers and the sea. You can also use the 
detergent bottles again so there’s less waste. 
When you finish the washing up, go out. Pubs, 
theatres and cinemas will all have their lights and 
air conditioning on whether you visit them or not. 
Your house will only have its lights on if you’re 
at home. This is a good reason to stay out until 
bedtime!
