Thinking back to when I stopped idling my car... it was a small start.

I read about the pollution and just turned the key off at lights... now it's automatic. Over the years, my fuel costs went down a bit. What small switch did you try that ended up lasting?

I started using a programmable thermostat back in 2018. Setting it a few degrees cooler in winter really cut my heating bill after the first season. Those little habit shifts do add up over time.

That thermostat move from @jana672 is key, those tiny habits really do stack up.

Guess we should all just give up then and wait for the container ships to turn themselves off.

Cool you saved some gas money, but let's be real. Does anyone actually believe turning off your car at a light makes a dent? The big factories and container ships are pumping out pollution on a scale we can't even picture. It's nice to feel better, but sometimes these little tips just let the real problems off the hook.
