Are
you surprised by the amount of electricity you are responsible for using?
Why
or why not?

Ask
your parents to look on their electric bill and find what the cost of a unit of
electricity is. Multiply that number by
the hours you used. How much did it
cost for you to use the above items for two days? (use the Energy
Calculator on the Energy Adventure Web page to find out how much one light
bulb is costing your family!)
