Spooktacular Energy Efficient Halloween Tips
Halloween is a time for fun, frights and festivities, but it doesn't have to come at the expense of energy consumption. Here are some simple tips to make your Halloween both fun, festive and eco-friendly.
1. Go LED - Swap out traditional light bulbs for LED lights in your decorations and Jack-o-Lanterns. They use up 80% less energy and last much longer so you can enjoy a spooky glow.
2. Eco-Friendly Costumes - Instead of purchasing new costumes, get creative! Swap costumes with friends or repurpose old costumes. You can also explore thrift stores for unique finds that are both budget-friendly and sustainable.
3. Natural Decorations - Use pumpkins, gourds and autumn leaves for decoration. After Halloween, compost them to enrich your garden soil. This way, you can enjoy your festivities and give back to the earth.
4. Energy-Saving Trick-or-Treating - If you're handing out candy, consider using rechargeable LED candles to light your pathway. Or, use solar powered lights along your sidewalk. Both are more energy efficient!
Hope you are your little goblins enjoy a fun and safe Halloween!
