Mental Mission: Energy Use

March 2nd, 2009 · No Comments · Avoiding Waste

It's Sunshine Awareness Week at Kitchen Stewardship! I'm burned on half my body as a result of testing natural sunscreens...be sure to check all this week's posts for the scoop on what works, what doesn't, and when (if?) we need sunblock at all, along with over $400 in sun protection giveaways. Check out the natural sunblock review for the scoop.

Make sure you don't miss a thing by subscribing via RSS or email.

Your mental mission this week is to be conscious of your energy use in the kitchen.

  • Do you leave lights on when you’re not using them?
  • How long do you leave the refrigerator door open?
  • Do you know how to efficiently boil a pot of water?
  • How much energy do you use to cook meals in the oven?

Just pay attention this week while you’re saving your bread and vegetables.  See if you can find room for improvement, and I’ll give you some ideas next Monday.

If you want to, check out the All Things Eco Blog Carnival which I am participating in today.
