Geyser at home is one of the most useful appliances, that consume more electricity. Let's take a cold bath instead of a warm bath, as the weather this day favors us, to save electricity, turn off your geyser when it is not in use. Eat food while warm instead of warming it again when it cools. Do most of your chores manually to save electricity instead of depending on electric appliances. Open a window to light the house instead of light from the light bulb. 

Water! Say NO to Juices/Milk tea drinks

It's not easy but let's give it a try, I was so addicted to bubble milk tea since I came here in Taiwan and I've been not drinking water, only tea and grape juice. I have also noticed that tea is the best and most popular drink in Taiwan. However, since the body needs water, for my green action I've decided to drink water for a month to save money and manage waste. Since now its summer the body cells, organs and tissues need water to help regulate their temperature and maintain other bodily functions, because the body loses water through breathing, sweating and digestion, so it is important to rehydrate by drinking fresh water instead of juices because most of those drinks have added sugar which is not healthy as some people might think, as it can increases obesity, heart diseases, etc.
