Low-carbon life I can do

Low-carbon environmental protection is a popular vocabulary in recent years. Of course, environmental protection should also be taken into account in home life. So how do you do low carbon in your daily life? Next, share low-carbon common sense of home life.

1, in the decoration process, whether it is day or night, indoor lighting is always open, this will not only cause light pollution will also increase the cost; so when signing a home improvement contract, you can clearly this point.

2, hot water pipe insulation, to the hot water pipe "to put on a thick coat" to reduce the loss of heat and waste of resources (but the construction of the price will increase accordingly).

3, the temperature of the air-conditioning is best controlled at about 25 degrees, when the household heating in winter, the temperature of the heating should be adjusted to the lowest temperature at noon.

4, refrigerator: The amount of food stored in the refrigerator to account for 80% of the volume is appropriate, put too much or too little, all costs electricity.

5. Washing machine: In the same long washing time, when the weak gear is working, there are more motor starting times, that is to say, using strong gears is actually more energy saving than weak gears, and the service life of the washing machine can be extended.

6. Microwave ovens: Each time foods are heated or cooked, it is advisable not to exceed 0.5 kilograms. It is best to cut them into small pieces. When the quantity is too large, it should be heated in different periods and be stirred in the middle to use “high fire” as much as possible.

7. Computer: When the computer is turned off for a short time, the “sleep” mode of the computer is enabled, and the energy consumption can be reduced to less than 50%.

8, gas: summer temperatures are high, do not cover before boiling water, so that the air temperature than the low temperature of the water and heat exchange, etc., when the natural temperature rise to air temperature and then add water, can save gas.

9, light energy-saving lamps, see power clearly. The lighting effect of an 11W energy-saving lamp is a 60W ordinary light bulb, and it saves 80% of electricity per minute compared to an ordinary light bulb. If 1.2 billion energy-saving lamps are used throughout the country, the electricity saved is equivalent to the annual power generation of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station.

10, double-button toilet, water-saving and easy to use. Compared with conventional one-touch toilets, using a two-button toilet each house saves at least half the water per day. The monthly water consumption for a 9-litre single-key toilet is approximately 3,240 liters; for a 3/6-liter toilet, it is 1,350 litres per month, which not only saves 1,890 liters of tap water, but also reduces the discharge of sewage. The production of tap water and the treatment of sewage all require a lot of energy, so saving water can also save energy.
