Turn Golden Age Members of the Golden Age Club will have lunch at the elementary school- on off incandescent lights whenever they are not being used. Flourescent lights should be turned off whenever they are not going to be used for 15 minutes or longer. Bulb wattage does not really measure the amount of light a bulb gives. The amount of light a bulb gives off is measured in lumens. The law now requires that each bulb package list watts, lumens, and life span so bulbs can be purchased according to service and amount of light needed. Standard bulbs will give approximately 750 hours of use with 1,750 lumens of light output. Long-lif- e bulbs will usually give 2,500 hours of use but put out only 1,470 lumens. Choose long-lifbulbs for e locations and standard bulbs for normal applications where light output is important. Install dimmer switches and timers to reduce lighting waste.

The oven is insulated and is actually on for only about of each hour it is used. Use oven feathe ture only when necessary. Microwave ovens save cooking time and energy. No heat is generated except in the food itself.
