Watch out - the heating or hot water is running during the current school holidays! Up to the school used 7,000 kWh of gas during this holiday, which has cost £210 and generated 1,300 kg CO2. Make sure both your heating and hot water are switched off to prevent further waste.

If you choose to leave your heating and/or hot water running, by the end of the holidays you will have used 17,000 kWh, costing £500 and generating 3,000 kg CO2.
