I chose to reduce my energy consumption; I chose this because I thought it would be hard for me to do. It sounds easy, but I have been struggling a little. I like to leave my laptop on because its more convenient than turning it on every time to use it. I have gotten progressively better at remembering to turn it off. Also, I like to have my lamp on in my room because it makes the room feel cozy, however I have been keeping it off. In fact, I have it off right now usually I would always have it on if I am working at my desk. The Christmas lights in my dorm I have been leaving off too because they take a lot of extra energy. So far, I have made progress. The first two days were very difficult because it was something new to adjust to, but after that it has been going good! I hope to continue my progress.
