Ashram energy conservation?

[Guest guest]

I'm wondering if Amma's ashrams,

especially those in West, if they

have an energy-conserving policy

or practices. Not necessarily

" green " focus, but general.

 

For example, at my workplace,

I noticed they have timer-light

switches for almost everything.

Sure, they're all florescent fixtures,

but the interior rooms have motion

sensor timers and the outer buildings

have manual turn-type timer switches.

With the exception of the mechanic's

bay which I'm sure is a safety/security

function.

 

The reason for the timers on

the outer buildings I heard was because

the ballasts on the ceiling lights were

burning out often enough to be costly,

and were recommended by an electrician.
