Liberty Homes  Encourages Liberty for Life Homebuyers  
To Commit to a Simple Switch to Energy-Efficient Lighting

(Salt Lake City, Utah – October 2, 2007) Liberty Homes today announced that they have joined the national ENERGY STAR® Change a Light, Change the World campaign, a growing community of businesses, schools, utilities, non-profit organizations, individuals, and countless others who have made a firm commitment to help change the world, one light — one energy-saving step — at a time.

As part of this national initiative, Liberty Homes plans to encourage 50 individuals to pledge to replace at least one standard bulb or fixture at home with one that has earned the government's ENERGY STAR label, as an important step to save energy and join the fight against global climate change. Liberty Homes will kick off its effort on October 3, 2007, national ENERGY STAR Change a Light Day. 50 pledges could save 14,100 kWh of energy and prevent 20,450 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions. "Like an increasing number of organizations, we want to do our part to reduce our country's greenhouse gas emissions and play a role in fighting climate change," said Jared Riddle, Purchasing Manager for Liberty Homes. "We are proud to spread the word about the difference individuals in our community can make by acting together to take energy-saving steps at home.

"Liberty Homes will encourage its community to make a simple, yet meaningful commitment by taking the online ENERGY STAR Change a Light Pledge. Lighting accounts for about 20 percent of the typical home's electricity use. Replacing standard lights typically left on longest at home with energy-efficient options that use 75% less energy is a significant way to cut energy costs while also preventing greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.

"Becoming part of the solution to global climate change takes less time and effort than you might think. In fact, it can start by taking energy-saving steps at home as simple as changing a light," said Wendy Reed of the Environmental Protection Agency. "Organizations like Liberty Homes are an important part of the ENERGY STAR Change a Light community who have committed their time to help spread the word about the need to use energy more efficiently at home. We are proud to work with them and with the Americans in every part of the country who have already pledged to change more than 1 million lights collectively.

"The ENERGY STAR Change a Light, Change the World campaign is a national call-to-action sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Department of Energy and Department of Housing and Urban Development to encourage Americans to use energy efficiently at home and to start by switching to lighting options that have earned the government's ENERGY STAR label for energy efficiency. If every American home replaced just one light with an ENERGY STAR, every year we would save enough energy to light more than 3 million homes, more than $600 million in energy costs, and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of more than 800,000 cars.
