2. Used Stuff Isn’t That Bad
Products in their second life
are good enough to be used if
they still have their efficiency
maintained at appropriate
levels.
You should focus on the
functionality of the appliances
and not the aesthetics.
Used products would also
cost less to acquire.
3. Go Green
You need to have an eco-
friendly mindset in order to
contribute to environmental
protection.
For instance, instead of using
the air-conditioning, you
could open up the windows
and enjoy the breeze. .
Shutting off the vehicle if you
are in a traffic jam
4. When you get appliances or tools for the
caravan, check its energy efficiency ratings.
Electronic items do help in reducing
energy consumption and while you cannot
practically save energy, but you end up
saving it anyways because the unused part
is utilized elsewhere.
Check your vehicle for efficiency and if
required, get it tuned by a mechanic so
that you don’t waste precious fuel on your
trip.
Energy Efficient is the Way to Go
5. Carry solar cookers with you so
that you don’t have to light up a
fire of use a stove for cooking
food.
You could try and get solar
powered lights or other
components. But this is for those
who are into frequent
caravanning.
For the occasional traveler, I would
suggest using solar appliances only
as the lighting and all could be a
little hefty on your pocket.
Try Solar Power
6. Doing things manually can be
therapeutic and would save you loads
of energy.
You could try and juice an orange with
a hand juicer instead of simply
popping them inside a juicer machine.
Use a broom and a mop to clean the
floor, drill a hole using a hand drill, or
even try to jack up the caravan with
one that requires you to do it by
hand.
How About Some Good Old Manual Efforts
7. Have you left the water running in the
bathroom?
Are you idling away the engine even
when you can manage with the
engine turned off?
You need to utilize your resources
carefully and this includes energy,
fuel, food, water and others.
Conservation of resources is an
equally important activity and is
quintessential for maximizing the
benefits of green initiatives.
