The consumer has to do his or her share of controlling the price of energy. Most believe that this is easier said than done, but a few simple steps will make a difference.

1 Buy automobiles that are 30+ miles to a gallon. (Rid yourself of the gas guzzler SUV’S). 2)  Drive at 60 miles / hour. 3)  Sacrifice the use of automobiles and use other means of transport when possible. 4)  Use good quality gas only. 5)  Use less AC in the summer and properly insulate your residence. 6)  Live in harmony with nature ( use as little AC as possible in your automobile). 7)  Wash laundry in cold water and dry on clothes line. and use wrinkle free fabric. Shower in cold water in the summer time. 9)  When replacing the water heater use the tank less one with instant heating. 9)  Wash dishes by hand. 10)  Last and very important – cook outside the house and do not heat the home up in the summer time.  11)  Use CFL bulbs or LED lights and it will make a big difference in your energy consumption.

We as American’s are very resourceful and hard working and we can beat this energy virus and have a great lifestyle without throwing our hard earned money. Recycle anything that can be reused and stop using plastic bags and other plastic materials. Use less ice. Just simple and basic changes will save a lot of expense and energy. This will bring the commodities gang down to its knees.
