October
marks the annual celebration of Energy Awareness Month. Since 1991, the U.S.
Department of Energy has recognized the significance of energy efficiency and
energy conservation by promoting smart energy practices. We hope you will join
GBA in supporting clean energy initiatives during this month, which in turn
will help the economy and protect our environment. Help us honor energy
awareness by participating in the following sustainability efforts at your
home, business or school:
-
Install quick-fix energy conservation measures. For example, switch incandescent light bulbs to compact florescent bulbs or install programmable thermostats.
- Schedule an energy audit, create a Climate Action Plan, or sign a pledge to become carbon neutral.
- Educators or Unified School District Energy Managers can discuss the importance of energy and the environment with their students through initiatives currently implemented by the school such as recycling, energy conservation and renewable energy.
- Walk, bike or take the bus to your destination to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
- Bring reusable bags to the grocery store or your own mug to the coffee shop. Reduce, reuse, and recycle!
- Gather a group of friends and honor the month by planting a tree help the environment thrive.
We
invite you to share your ideas – join the conversation in the comments below!

Luckily, there are various resources, technology, and software available that can help plant and facility project managers and teams monitor overall energy usage. Energy management Software review
