Green Tips
Greening your Energy:

- Purchase only Energy Star appliances. Visit http://www.energystar.gov/
- Participate in the Tulsa Entrepreneurial Spirit Award and create a green energy business in Tulsa. Visit: http://www.tulsaspiritaward.com/splash/

- Install geothermal to assist with heating and cooling your home
- Photovoltaic-solar panels create electricity from the sun-installation is easy and very little maintenance
- Create your own energy-power your bicycles to take you where you need to go!
