Dare to Compare Challenge
Greening Neighborhoods is starting a challenge to encourage households to reduce their usage of electricity during the peak period of the summer months June, July and August.

Here is the plan and the incentive.  
E-mail us at daretocompare@greeningneighborhoods.com right now to save money, have fun and meet your neighbors by participating in the challenge.  
Then go to greening neighborhoods and click on “Baseline Energy Tracker”.  It’s the red bar on the right side of the home page.  If you haven’t signed up for the Baseline sign up.  If you are signed up, log in.   
A spread sheet will come up where you can enter energy usage in KWh for June from your Electric Power bill, then the following two months.
Greening Neighborhoods will post results at the end of each month so you can see how you compare to your neighbors.   (Note that all individual results are coded so no names will be divulged.)

Because it would be unfair to compare large households with small households, we have made two categories:

1)         Households with one or two bedrooms.
2)         Households with three or more bedrooms.

Each week we will send out tips on how to reduce electricity use to help you lower your bills and nudge your neighbors.  If you have good tips of your own to share, post them on the Greening Neighborhoods blog.

Remember, contact us at daretocompare@greeningneighborhoods.com to let us know you are daring to compare.  Be sure to let us know if you have up to two bedrooms or more than two bedrooms.  Then fill in your data on the Baseline Energy Tracker.

Good luck,
Greening Neighborhoods
