To conserve the following steps can be used
1 . switching of lights and fans and other when not in use.
2 . using CFL instead of ordinary tube lights.
3 . If u have a computer though it does not take much power , just use the stand by option when not in use.
4 . Well this wont help very much , try not opening the refrigerator doors much frequently.
5. please dont use tube lights and CFL . Actually this is called day light savings and can be very useful.
6. If u have a garden u can use the water which u use to bath as a method of irrigation as plats can also be grown using recycled water but the only problem is using water with soaps and detergent . http://www.greensbetter.com -
Leave NOTHING on stand-by, switch off at the socket.
Switch off lights when you leave the room/don%26#039;t really need them.
Turn the tap off while you brush your teeth.
Quick showers instead of baths.
Only fill the kettle for how many cups you need, don%26#039;t over fill.
Try recyceling as much as you can too, plastic, glass, old clothes, foods like potato peelings and such like.
All I can think of atm. Hope it helped. -
Well, I can tell you what I%26#039;ve done:
1) I%26#039;ve given up driving, gave up the car, so no more fossil fuel burning for me! (We have great public transporation.)
2) I%26#039;ve started taking baths instead of showers, they use less water.
3) I put aluminum foils on the windows in the back porch to reflect the summer heat and keep down cooling costs. -
change to water saving facites, shower heads, put two two letter bottles filled with rocks in you%26#039;re toilets tank (less water per flush), turn water off when brushing teeth. for electritie use energy star appliences, energy efficient litte balbs, keep fridge door closed when not needed.

When brushing teeth turn water off when its not being used, turn everything of then not being used and especially when you are not home, turn the tv off when not paying attention.

Conserve energy by turning off lights you don%26#039;t use and cutting off the water when your done with it. This also benefits you because your electric and utility bill won%26#039;t be as high
