  3. For my energy home it is 53%. I have 7% for driving and flying. I have recycling I have 6.4%. For food and Diet I have 33.6%. In all of the questions that were asked, I realize how much more that I could save. I could unplug electronics when I'm not using them. I could also use fluorescent lights. There are many things that I could do that would help more than I do already.
