Due to the United States high usage of non-renewble resources and the reasons for which these resources are used, I began to seak ways to create an energy efficiency plan myself. 

Step 1: Create a home energy audit and develop an understanding of the acutal amounts of energy I used each day.

Step 2: Idenftify which appliances or products would "leak energy." To make life "easier" and make the product operate to the convenience of the consumer, many appliances have a sleep mode. However, while in this mode, these appliances still use energy. 

Step 3: Identify which appliances or products that consumed the most energy.

Step 4: Create a solution to decrease the amount of energy they use. 

Step 5: Indetify if the solutions were effective.
