I got my whole block in Toledo to cut gas use by turning one thing down 2 degrees
Our neighborhood group kept arguing about bigger stuff for months and nothing got done, so I just knocked my water heater down from 140 to 120 and my bill dropped $11 the first month. Then 14 houses on my street tried it and almost all of them saw a drop too, no rebates, no paperwork, no one coming out to your house. Is there another swap this simple that I'm missing, because I'd rather do 10 dumb small things than sit through one more meeting about a city plan.

How did you get 14 houses to actually try it instead of just nodding and forgetting? That part is the real win here. I feel you on the meeting thing, I sat through two years of neighborhood chats about solar panels and we never got past arguing over a flyer. The water heater trick is legit, mine went down about $9 and I didn't change anything else. Small stuff that people can do the same day beats a plan that takes a year to even start.
