How Does My Family Conserve Energy?

     My family tries to conserve as much energy as we can, even though we are not always good at it.  First of all, in the winter, we set our heat to only go one when we are home.  It isn't on during the day, and is very low while we are sleeping.  We open the shades, so the heat can come into our house.  During the summer, we don't have the air conditioning on very often.  We open our doors and windows so the air can get in.  We also turn on our fans.  Another way we conserve energy is by trying to turn off the lights when we are not in that room.  We also unplug cords from the wall, like phone chargers, when they are not being used.  The benefit from not using the heat and air conditioning very often is it doesn't cost as much.  It is also better for the environment.  I think it is important that we try to conserve energy.
