Getting Radical
by Chris Stanley on 06/28/10
Our family has been lightly tossing around the idea of not using our lights anymore and making candles to use instead. We also were thinking we could turn off our air conditioner. The following day the air conditioner stopped working and we are pushed into our plan a bit faster.
The reason we are doing this is to prepare us for using less electricity when we build our log cabin that will be powered by alternative energy only. Maybe it is radical or maybe it's genuis!
Not only does this help with energy costs, but it also takes away the incentive to be inside and forces us outside more to do the things we need to do any ways.
