We need to try and save electricity by using it only when required and switching the electrical appliances, lights, fans and AC off when not in use. Sunlight or Natural Light We need to utilize the sunlight during the daytime and try to switch off the lights, as it not only saves energy but also the expenses. Repair or replace old electronic appliances We must make it a habit to replace old and inefficient appliances with the latest models available so that we can conserve electricity. Appliances such as refrigerators and dryers are big consumes of electricity. Therefore, we need to check for their efficiency and replace them. Unplug electrical gadgets Gadgets such as printers and gaming systems consumes energy even when they are left inactive. This actually contributes to 10% of energy consumption. We can try to use a power strip with a switch to turn off the numerous devices at one stretch. Water heater Make sure to reset the hot water heater according to your needs. Covering the heater with an insulating blanket will also help in significant energy saving. They need to be inspected for leakage. Install a digital thermostat Installing a digital thermostat ensures electricity efficiency. We can reset the temperatures when not required to save electricity. Seal and insulate ducts We need to make it a point to regularly repair air filters to ensure that air moves through the ducts freely. We also need to seal and insulate them to avoid leakage. Solar Panel Install solar panels in your house. The greatest way to conserve electricity is to install solar panels. TV viewing time Kids tend to watch TV for a long duration. This might sometimes lead to the TV being on for the entire day. We need to keep a check on that to save energy. Incandescent light Switch over to conventional incandescent lights that will convert just about 10% of the energy they consume into light. We can also try to switch over to LEDs and compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and minimize the energy required for lighting by 50%.

Hi Sainath Manikandan, this is a mentor, Sang Su Lee.
Thank you for providing a list of behaviors to do to save the environment. Especially, "fixing electronic appliances" option was attractive to me because normally people just throw away when something is not working well. However, making a new product makes huge cost on the environment.
Green cheers!~

Thanks for the tips @Sainath Manikandan. They are really helpful and surely we've always got to save electricity and learn its proper utilization, however we don't have to keep that knowledge for ourselves but indeed spread awareness on power utilization in the community. And we don't have to forget that plugging in many appliances in one socket can lead to an accident. So ought to always take care of every kind of electrical appliance to reduce accidents. Otherwise this was worth sharing, thanks.
Green Cheers !!
