An energy game: Help in choosing cuts During the November 2009 Central England Area Meeting Alice Yaxley of Coventry Meeting asked Friends to write on post-its things that they had recently done for the environment and actions they felt they could take in the near future. She then made and circulated a list of the actions done and proposed. In December Area Meeting Friends agreed Central England Area Meeting would sign up to 10:10, striving to reduce our energy use by 10% over twelve months.
In February Area Meeting Friends considered at length how they could and should go about saving energy, both in our meetings and in our individual lives. This task exercised us at some length. Having read with great interest and intellectual satisfaction “Sustainable Energy without the Hot Air” by Prof. David MacKay, it occurred to me that I might be able to help people identify how they use energy in their lives and, in consequence, how they can reduce its usage. To this end I have made cut-out cards with some of the actions which Friends suggested (with the potential for energy saving on the reverse) and an “Energy Choice Matrix”. Follow the instructions on the card sheet to “play the game” and decide how you will save your first 20kWh for 10:10!
