ROCHESTER, MI, September 20, 2010: The September 2010 issue of The ULS (Use Less Stuff) Report is out, featuring ways to easily save $1000 annually by reducing energy consumption around the home. According to Editor Bob Lilienfeld, “In 1994, we wrote that energy consumption would become a major economic and environmental issue in the Twenty First Century. Unfortunately, we were right, and the problem is even bigger than we
predicted.”
The way we consume energy, and not just electricity, in our homes, in our businesses and government departments has, basically, reached more or less unsustainable levels and simply turning off things that are not in use could go some way towards alleviating things a little bit.
We must do more though and really get down to looking at our energy consumption seriously with the view of reducing it.
The September issue also looks at some of the ironies associated with developing more sustainable packaging. Both demographics and consumer psychology are brought into the fray.
