The document summarizes an activity called "Smart Bills" for the project "Only One World, Don't Waste It". Students visited an Energy Efficiency Centre to learn how to save electricity by changing habits and replacing old appliances. They created charts on energy usage at home and school and collected information on saving energy. Posters and leaflets were made to present the importance of saving energy. The conclusion was that the group work provided new knowledge about conserving energy through small daily actions.

4. • We went to the Energy Efficiency Centre. There we got information about
saving electricity refusing from old habits and changing old electrical
appliances and light bulbs. We calculated and experimented. We were told
how to responsibly use electricity and electrical appliances.

5. • We realised that more economical is to fill up the washing machine to the
fullest before using it, and you wash it at 40o C. Better is to get a
dishwasher, then you’re not going to use much water. It’s better to use
sensor lamps. It’s advisable to use lighting that regulates intensity of the
light depending on daylight.

6. • Making your lunch, choose the electrical stove and use compatible
equipment, to make your food faster and economically. A lot of good ideas
we were told – recommendations – once a year your family need to visit
the Energy Efficiency Centre. It let you save up money and resources.
