Did you know that LED light blubs use 8 times less the amount of energy than
regular incandescent light blubs?
By switching out your light blubs, you are both reducing your whole energy consumption 9.5% AND helping to eliminate waste from landfills - since LEDs can be used
for DECADES!

Did you know elevators consume 17.5Wh per person every day?

Did you know you burn 5 calories each time you walk a stair? The
average person takes the elevator enough to cover 200 stairs everyday - that’s 500 calories a day! This could
burn ONE pound of fat per week!
