    When looking at all the options to choose from, Energy seemed to be the best category for me to go down. My dad is a huge believer in saving as much energy as possible, and it gets him mad when people around my house leave lights, computers, TVs, or any electronics on if they aren't being used. I felt like this is something not only myself struggles with but my younger brothers as well. So by focusing on these three actions I am hoping to get my dad less stressed and to ultimately stop wasting energy that isn't being used in the first place. I am going to do this by ensuring everything is off around my house before I leave or go to sleep, as well as putting reminders on my phone.
