LIGHTS ON... LIGHTS OFF...

Hooray... Another community tip!!!! These make us very happy.

Today's community tip is actually from Ruth - AAG's secretary. And it's a simple one, one we should really already know and do but somehow, some of us forget.

When it's dark...

And you walk into a room, turn this on...

When you leave...

Turn it off again...

Told you it was simple.

So simple we're going to add a little extra tip in, we'll even tell a story with it.

Our tip is when you pick up a good habit that saves you money and saves the planet... Teach someone else. Because then there are 2 of you saving the planet and feeling a little more financially smug. If both of you then teach another person, that's four people saving the planet and feeling financially smug.

Ruth is a very good lady who always remembers to turn off lights when she leaves the room. That's 1 person turning off their lights. Richard, sometimes forgets... so Ruth reminds him. Sadly, he still forgets.

So Ruth taught Rosie and Ellen to turn off the lights when they leave the room instead. That's 3 people turning off their lights and sometimes they also turn off Richard's lights. Hooray!!! Richard still sometimes forgets...

Ruth came in to the office and talked about ideas for the sustainability blog and said it's a good idea to turn your lights off when you leave the room. Alex wrote it in the sustainability blog! So now that's Abbotswood residents, Alex, Ruth, Ellen and Rosie all turning off their lights when they leave the room.

Well done Ruth, good work! Together we'll save the planet one light switch at a time... And maybe along the way we can all remind Richard...

Lights off for now and see you again tomorrow!
