Janelle Blakney

I will replace inefficient heating and cooling units.

I will only run the dishwasher when it is completely full to use less water and electricity.

I will have a certified HVAC technician service my heat pump/air conditioning unit prior to the heating and cooling seasons.

I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will spend 10 minutes checking out all the energy-saving opportunities on Chelan PUD's web page, ConservationMakesCents.org. Action Resource > >

I will exercise daily for 30 minute(s) per day for two weeks.

I will donate unneeded clothing, books, and household items rather than throwing them away.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.

I will replace manual thermostats with programmable ones.
