Turn Down Your Heating By 1 Degree
Buildings are a major source of the greenhouse gases responsible for climate change. Tow-thirds of the energy used by buildings is for hot water and heating. Carefully managing our domestic heating allows us to minimise global warming and to avoid further polluting the air around us.
Our houses are often heated to excess. The ideal living room temperature is 20 degrees, and bedrooms are healthier at 16 degrees. Each one-degree increase in temperature produces a 7 to 11 per cent increase in energy consumption (depending on how well-insulated your home is).
Use heat wisely and insulate well
