For more information about what you can do on an individual level to address the changing climate and curb your energy use, please visit the Department of Energy’s website

The easiest best way to reduce our nation’s carbon footprint is to get the municipal road crews in all the cities across the country to time the stoplights at the major intersections to keep traffic moving instead of stopping and starting for all the red lights. We could also change schools to a 4 day schedule to save 20% on the fuel for buses, cut the post office to from 6 to 4 day delivery schedule, and figure out how to perform major highway construction projects without creating mile long traffic backups. Those things would be enough to create a glut in the oil supply as well and would help the economy tremendously.

The best way to reduce consumption is to reduce waste.
