Start your energy diet.

Here’s a diet that doesn’t require giving up hot fudge sundaes and cheeseburgers– it’s an energy diet. Fine, energy dieting is not going to help you lose weight, but it will help save money and the planet. This means cutting back on your energy use, and with the aid of these two websites, you won’t even need to cheat!

1. Earth Aid

Get paid to reduce your home energy usage?! Where do we sign up? With Earth Aid, you sign up to automatically track your home energy use, then each time you save energy or water, you earn Earth Aid Rewards Points, redeemable for discounts and offers. Plus, the website offers comprehensive reports about your energy use and what it means. Earth Aid is always growing, adding new rewards every day!

2. OPOWER

OPOWER is also helping consumers cut down on energy consumption. Perhaps the Jenny Craig of energy dieting, this site motivates millions to become more energy efficient, helps customers make smarter energy choices, and aims to save you money on your energy bills.
