Electricity: Practice 4

Turning things off

There are so many items in a house that often get left on when they are not being used. Televisions, fans, chargers, radios, cable/satellite boxes are just a few.

Sometime this week, take time when you leave a room or your house to make sure you have turned everything off that is not essential. As you make your rounds, notice how many things you have that use electricity, and think of how much power it takes to run your house in any given day.

Be humbled by how much money and resources this takes. Be proud that you are being a good steward with these resources, but at the same time don’t forget to realize so much more than just your money makes this possible.
