By making slight adjustments to your thermostat \u2013 a few degrees cooler in the winter and a few degrees warmer in the summer \u2013 your whole home can run more efficiently. You\u2019ll also notice a lower electricity bill at the end of the month. <em>Bonus!<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throw on an extra sweatshirt to help get you through the colder months, and dress down to your favorite pair of shorts in the warmer months.

Try to reposition your workspace to make the most use of sunlight throughout the day.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When natural light isn\u2019t available, the second greenest option would be to replace your incandescent light bulbs with energy-efficient<a href=\"https:\/\/www.energy.gov\/energysaver\/save-electricity-and-fuel\/lighting-choices-save-you-money\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> LEDs or CFLs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Power_Off_Electronics\"><\/span>Power Off Electronics<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Estimates show that<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nrdc.org\/sites\/default\/files\/residential-network-IP.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> home computing and networking equipment<\/a> consume more than $1 billion worth of electricity in a single year.

Sadly, no matter how well you take care of your equipment, nothing lasts forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, you\u2019ll start to notice how your computer\u2019s performance is steadily slowing down.

Maybe you just want to upgrade to something new.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buying new office technology can be an exciting time for your growing business \u2013 but it can also be expensive.
