Switch off domestic appliances

Turn off fans, air-conditioners, lights, etc. when not required.

Benefits - Saves energy, money and air pollution from power stations (reduces the emissions of sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulates).

Use energy efficient domestic appliances

Use energy saving light bulbs, air-conditioners, refrigerators, etc.

Benefits - Saves energy, money and air pollution from power stations (reduces the emissions of sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulates).

Use non-aerosol consumer products

Hair sprays, furniture polish, deodorants and pesticides often use hydrocarbons as their propellants. Non-aerosol consumer products, which contain no hydrocarbons, are usually manufactured in pump, solid or roll-on forms.

Benefits - Reduces the emissions of volatile organic compounds which helps reduce the formation of ozone.
