00:00I guess it's just like the standard stuff just turn lights off when you're not in the room or
00:04you know turn off appliances when you're going out the house that sort of thing but
00:07I mean I guess it kind of makes sense because all the kids are in the houses during the summer
00:11holidays so they're using more tech they're on their computers more. Our family's got like a
00:15bad habit of like leaving lights on when going out the house yeah I think we could reduce that
00:19yeah so save more money yeah that'd be good. I think like my my younger siblings they always
00:24go out and just leave the tv on like just playing and then like and teenagers like always have their
00:31phone on so they probably use electricity for that. I also think like we like to have led lights on
00:36so we'll just keep them on for long like coloured lights so you know that kind of adds to it. Some
00:41people fall asleep with them on as well. Yeah and like playing music so like if you leave your
00:45speakers on for like the full day like when we leave we've got our dog at home so like we leave
00:48like the radio on so that's going for like the full day. I do forget to turn off the light next
00:53to my bed sometimes when I wake up and then I'll you know go about my day I'll come home
00:56and then I see I've left it on so yeah I think I need to stop doing that.
