How ENERGY STAR Helps Reduce Emissions

EPA’s ENERGY STAR program helps to reduce emissions by reducing energy use. Reducing energy use cuts down on emissions either by reducing the amount of fuel burned at power plants or by reducing the amount of fuel—such as natural gas—that is burned on-site at homes, buildings, and industrial plants.

So what can you do? ENERGY STAR offers tips and product information to help you do your part in protecting the environment, now and in the future.
