Navigation Primary Navigation Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Secondary Navigation Government Education Search Search: South West residents reduce carbon footprint by using energy trackers Channel NewsAsia - Monday, November 10 SINGAPORE: Ever heard of an energy—saving workout? Well, the MPs and some 400 residents of the South West District did just that during their Clean and Green Carnival. They got on bikes to generate electricity needed for the carnival and spread the energy efficiency message at the same time. Since 2006, the district has started several green initiatives. Its "Change A Bulb" programme saw the installation of 5,850 energy—efficient bulbs, resulting in savings of S$125,204 last year. Dr Amy Khor, Mayor of South West District, said: "What we hope to do in the long term is to get all households in the South West district — 220,000 odd households — to change to efficient light bulbs. Assuming that each household changes to energy—efficient bulbs for at least two of the bulbs, that will translate to S$4.8m of savings in electricity consumption." The district’s "Cash for Trash" programme saw two million kilogrammes of household waste recycled in the past year and a half. This year, a pilot project to use Etrack, a device to track electricity consumption, will be pushed out in 100 households to encourage residents to mind their energy use. — CNA/ir Email Story IM Story Printable View Blog This Recommend this article Average (0 votes) Sign in to recommend this article » Most Recommended Stories » Related Articles: Climate Change South West residents reduce carbon footprint by using energy trackersChannel NewsAsia - Monday, November 10 New Zealand enters new era of conservative ruleAP - Monday, November 10 Party tussle ensnares Obama's global warming goalsAP - Sunday, November 9 Pulau Ubin could be model "green" island powered by clean energyChannel NewsAsia - Saturday, November 8 Related Articles: Singapore Foreign workers in Singapore take part in Gladiator ChallengeChannel NewsAsia - Monday, November 10 Contestants at Subaru Challenge get long break due to bad weatherChannel NewsAsia - Monday, November 10 Second—hand stores seeing more customers selling possessions for cashChannel NewsAsia - Monday, November 10 MM Lee believes property values will continue to rise in long termChannel NewsAsia - Monday, November 10 New Pioneers’ Memorial Hall documents lives of Singapore’s Chinese pioneersChannel NewsAsia - Monday, November 10 Enlarge Photo South West residents reduce carbon footprint by using energy trackers Related Full Coverage climate change climate change All Full Coverage Most Popular – Singapore Viewed Obama: First pooch may be mutt 'like me' Documents expose Prince William RAF training row: report Porsche hits record results on the back of VW shares Obama rules out new cabinet picks as jobless rate jumps US doctors tell Liu Xiang he needs surgery View Complete List » Search: Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology
