Success Stories
I have helped myself and the globe
Mon, 01/12/2009 - 15:25 — manishI have tried to reduce the number of lights i use and replace most of them with CFLs. There were few laces where i could not replace, but i have replaced the bulbs with CFLs and it has reduced my electricity bills. I live in an apartment with multiple floors, so we all pooled in to set up a Solar Water heater. It works amazing. I have stopped using my massive water heater and get hot water from solar heater.

I would suggest every one to contribute and save our planet earth.
