In our day to day life we face small actions that can make a big difference for the environment and for our pockets. For example, LED bulbs consume less energy than conventional bulbs, and can thus save about $220 per year. Even covering the pot while cooking saves 25% of the energy used to cook something without a lid. Fair trade products are also a better choice when shopping, as they are typically manufactured in eco-friendly production centers where workers earn fair wages and work in favorable conditions.
