This November, I Challenge You to Consume Fewer Fossil Fuels!

Power down. Unplug. Dial it back. 
​

November is beloved for lots of things. Thanksgiving. Election Day. Veteran’s Day.

Then there's NaNoWriMo, the month writers go nuts trying to churn out a novel from scratch in 30 days. And Mo-vember, the month dudes walk around with ridiculous beards and mustaches to raise awareness about men’s health issues (like prostate and testicular cancers, mental health and suicide prevention).

But, for Reductionists, November is going to be the month of reducing fossil fuel consumption.

Coal-powered electricity, natural gas-powered heat, petroleum-based gasoline and other nonrenewable-resource-based products. 

Yep. We're cutting back on all of 'em!

Because once these resources are gone, they’re gone forever.

That means every string of twinkle lights we plug in to add a little more cheer to our holidays, we inch closer to the day there won’t be any coal left to power those darling illuminations anymore.

I know we’re not stopping it from happening with this act of planetary kindness. But I think it’s worth trying to slow it down. 

Don’t you?

So during the month of November, we’re going to challenge ourselves to use fewer irreplaceable natural resources.

We’re powering down. We’re consuming less. And we’re buying ourselves and our children more time; time to invest in renewable resources; to innovate new methods for generating—and reusing—power.

What’s even better, we’re teaching ourselves new habits, proving we can live comfortably without using as many resources as we’re currently accustomed.  

Who’s with me?!

Take the pledge below and check out some of the ways you can start limiting your fossil fuel consumption RIGHT NOW:
  • Maximize your furnace's efficiency;
  • Turn your thermostat down one degree;
  • Unplug appliances when they're not being used;
  • Save water & cut back on electricity usage with memes!


​Congrats on taking the pledge, and good luck!
