Lighting is an aspect of environmental awareness that most of us seem to be fairly up to date with, energy saving bulbs being present in most household thanks to the increasing unpopularity of ‘traditional’ bulbs. If you haven’t yet converted to ‘Eco-bulbs’, they are readily available relatively anywhere and cut energy consumption by fifty percent. If all else fails, you can always fall back on the tried-and-tested option of natural light, which can be applied to the entire household. If installing a new kitchen, ensure there is an adequate amount of windows, or simply open the blinds to provide as much sunlight as possible – this requires no energy and is completely free!
