What can I do to reduce the amount of energy I use for lighting?

To reduce the amount of energy you use for lighting, first you should switch all of the bulbs in your home to energy efficient light blubs and always turn of the lights when you leave the room. It's a myth that it's best to leave lights on because it uses more energy to start them back up again. Utilize natural light as much as possible. Be sure to adjust your curtains or blinds to let in as much light as possible during the day. Lighting makes up an average of 15% of electricity use in the UK, so it's important to reduce your use.
