Davao Light: ‘Tis the season to be jolly and thrifty!

Yes! ‘Ber’ months are in! Christmas spirit is around the corner!

We all know that Pinoys smell something magical about these ‘ber’ months. Well, aside from the fact that the longest Christmas season unfolds in our country (Yay!) and TV programs begin their usual early countdowns, everyone, no age group or gender, has started to spread the good vibes of the season thru Christmas songs, colorful decorations, greetings with giggles, and most probably the cooler weather of the year. The upcoming holiday season is commonly a big time for energy use, but hey! It doesn’t have to be that way all the time. Davao Light offers you easy tips on conserving energy and saving your Christmas bonus for yourself.

If you’re planning on replacing your old Christmas lights, consider LeD holiday lights. even though they are a little bit more expensive than the ordinary one, they use less electricity, won’t burn your children’s hands, and they last longer letting you save money and energy eventually.

There are a lot of ecards in the internet, yet it is better and efficient to give the handmade ones. Use your old stationery or your old school supplies to make a lovely card.

Holiday season can be a time for family trips and night outings. In times like these, turn the lights off when not at home and/or when you are asleep.

Wait until dark to turn on your Christmas lights, but don’t forget to turn them off before going to bed. To avoid unnecessary running up of electricity bill, set a timer on your mobile phones just to remind you of switching those lights off.

Turn off air conditioners when not badly needed. Open windows to let natural breeze of the season cool your home.

Don’t put too much food in the refrigerator. Just pack food as takeaways since tis’ the season of giving.

Have an energy-aware and happy holidays, Pinoys!
