Ways.I.Save.Energy&More.Ways.

My family saves energy by turning off the lights when we leave a room, putting my radio on a timer at night so it doesn't stay on, turning the water off when I'm brushing my teeth, keeping the doors closed to keep the heat or the a/c in, using CFL lightbulbs, lowering the heat in the day when we're not home, only opening the fridge door when it's absolutely necessary, washing our clothes in cold water, keeping our hot tub closed when it's not in use, using reusable water bottles, using cloth towels instead of paper towels, only running the washer, dryer or dishwasher when there is a full load, emailing things instead of printing them out, hanging laundry out to dry in good weather, having low flow toilets, energy efficient washer and dryer and kitchen appliances and using a dim light setting whenever possible.

Other ways to save energy are to use http://www.saveswatts.com/ instead of google, turn up the temperature on our freezer and fridge, unplugging chargers and appliances when they're not in use, turn down the brightness on your laptop and walk or ride your bike whenever you can.
