What the Plainville Public Library is doing to Go Green:

We keep our thermostats at 68 degrees. And our boiler is on a timer.

Heat goes off at the end of April. Air conditioning is only used when needed.

We replaced all of our light bulbs in 2005 with energy efficient bulbs and ballasts.

We turn off any lights we are not using.

We put a brick in each toilet tank to reduce water usage.

We set our computers to go to "sleep" if no one is using them.

We put insulation behind all of our outlet covers in 2002.

We do not treat our lawn with chemicals.

We set our outside lights to go off at 9pm.

We recycle a big green bin of paper and cardboard every week.

We recycle our cans and plastic containers from lunch.

We recycle our printer cartridges.

We recycle plastic bags by giving them to you to carry your items.
