"The First Presidency also authorized other measures to cope with the energy crisis, including:
—Eliminating all outside lighting at Church buildings, except that necessary to provide adequate security or prevent injury.
—Encouraging Church members to join car pools and urging them to observe prescribed speed limits.
—Lowering thermostats in homes where feasible and eliminating unnecessary consumption of electricity or fuel. "
