Thanks to Yahoo Green for publishing a list of several ways to save on energy at home! Not only will these ideas help you save money, but they will also reduce CO2, and help keep the environment people friendly. Cheapskates love clean air!

Save Energy:

Programmable Thermostat
Plug Energy Leaks in Your Home
Insulate Your Water Heater
Insulate and Seal HVAC Ducts
Install Efficient Shower Ducts
Lower Thermostat by 2 Degrees in Winter
Lower Water Heater to 120 Degrees
Wash Clothes in Cold Water
Turn Off Lights When They Are Not In Use
Turn Off Home Office Equipment When You Are Not Working
Lose the Extra Fridge or Freezer
Increase AC Temp by 3 Degrees in the Summer
Air Dry Clothes in the Summer
Use an Energy Saving Mode on Applicances when Available

These tricks can save an average household about $500 a year, which of course, you can use to purchase more energy efficient appliances in the future. One other tip I’ve read recently suggests actually unplugging tv’s when they are not in use. Apparently they still draw some energy when they are off. Who knew?
