Mumbai has been going through a major power crunch. There is massive load-shedding and it is expected to have power cuts very often now. As a true citizen of the city I decided to put in some ideas on how we can save precious electricity. Here it is:
-
Learn to sleep without the Air-conditioner. If you have to, set an alarm or Auto-off to shut it before dawn breaks. It will do good for your body too.
-
Stop using the elevator. Take the stairs once a day. Thank me when you lose those pounds.
-
Start wearing wrinkled clothes. Ironing takes up too much of power.
-
Stop bathing in hot water. Do you have any idea how much power is consumed by a water heater. If you can’t do without one, take a shower with your partner to maximize usage.
-
Stop watching TV – read books instead. You can get as much drama, action and sex in books as you would want for your daily dose.
-
Get romantic. Switch to candle-light dinners.
-
Don’t light your room like a photo studio – learn to control the lights. You can’t look better with more lights – YOU are the way YOU are.
-
Finally – Stop reading this dumb guide and switch off your PC. Save the power for something worthwhile.
And if you think of an idea to save electricity, leave a comment.
