#doingitinthedark, the week-long energy competition has ended. However, we hope the behavioral tips and tricks we followed will continue throughout the term. Together, we were able to reduce our energy consumption by 6%. Franklin has shown us how to do it in the right way by reducing its energy consumption by almost 30 %!!!
A round of applause to Franklin and its eco-conscious members: they are invited to assemble in Commons Lawn Side of the Commons i.e, under the dining hall's terrace at noon. They will be marking the end of Daylight Savings by ringing the Common's bell! Congratulations Franklin!!!
On average a house was able to reduce electricity consumption by 7%. Definitely on the right track!
