You probably don't think about your water heater unless your shower turns cold. Your water heater, however, represents about 20% of the CO2 emissions of your home.

By lowering the temperature setting of your water heater to 120 degrees (or to "warm" or between "low" and "medium" if your heater does not show degrees), your household can save 150 pounds of CO2 each year.
