  • Being cold costs lives
    - keeping warm lowers your risk of poor health
     

  • Turning up the heating costs money
    -     your heating bill increases by 10% for every degree you turn the heating up
     

  • Keeping warm this winter doesn't have to cost the earth
    -     lower Co2 emissions, from not turning up the heating, will help save the planet
