gas than a person will save by driving a high - mileage car, recycling,
using energy - efficient
appliances and light bulbs, etc. «Clearly, the potential savings from reduced reproduction are huge compared to the savings that can be achieved by changes in lifestyle,» wrote the authors.

use and emissions along the full fuel cycle, households with natural
gas versus all - electric
appliances produce 37 percent lower greenhouse
gas emissions.

using energy - efficient
appliances and light bulbs.»
