The Electricity Bill

Jake’s mother: 1, 3, 4, 5, 7
B,
My mother was very angry when she saw me wasting energy. I realized it wasn't
good after many times my mother said it. I decided not to let that happen again. I
will try to optimize all unnecessary devices. I would start with unplugging unused
devices such as computers, TVs... Replacing the light bulbs with LEB lights can
save me quite a bit of wasted electricity. The idea of keeping the fridge full with
ice bottles is pretty cool, too. I've just discovered that using a shower is less of a
waste of water than a bath. I will do them. Would you like to try it with me? That
would be very interesting.
Do you have any other ways to save energy? Hope to hear from you soon.
