Turn off sockets at the wall over night 6. When it's a bright day make sure the lights are off 7. Get water butts for outside and use the water for plants 8. Encourage families to take less plane journeys (e.g. for close destinations) 9. Encourage more people to walk or cycle to school 10. Do an assembly on water and just before the assembly turn all the taps on. See how many get turned off after the assembly. 11. Install low energy light bulbs 12.
