College House Energy Consumption

For my project I will be looking at how to conserve energy at my already energy inefficient downtown house. The main goal of this project is to reduce energy waste in the house that I share with four other roomates. Although it is nice to save energy, the main reason I’am doing this is to save a little money each month on our gas and electric bills. I have been doing a little research on energy saving tips and I plan to put these into action in my house, and hopefully see a positive outcome. However, like energy consumption around the world, I wont see much change unless my other roomates participate in my conservation efforts. I hope to teach them as well some tips and tricks so we can all make a positive difference in our world together. I want to be able to compare previous electricity and gas bill to the ones preceding my project.
