Omaha / Reach for the Star

Omaha is glad you’re here! Each challenge you complete is a small step for Omaha… and a giant leap for the planet. Take a picture of yourself completing the challenge below. Upload the photo here, and you’ll be entered into this week’s drawing. Then come right back and do it again.

Instructions:

Replace old appliances with energy- and water-efficient appliances with Energy Star labels and replace burnt out light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs or LED technology. (During October, you can find $3 off CFL coupons at a number of CFL retailers in the Omaha area, courtesy of OPPD. The promotion lasts October 1-31, 2009). (Take a photo of yourself screwing in new bulbs or with your new appliance!)

I got CFLs to replace the bulbs in my kitchen and dining room ceiling fans, which we use quite often. I had replaced 6 in other areas of the house, but this doubled the number I am now using. The $3 off coupons really made it affordable!
