How can I use solar power in my rent home?

We are renting a 1400 sqft home built in the 1950's. I want to be as energy conscious as possible, but it seems impossible in this old house that was built long before anyone even thought about conserving energy. I know we can seal the windows, we've already replaced all light bulbs with CFL's. We don't have the money for large solar panels and even then we can install anything because we are just renting. Are there any portable solar panels that we can put in the backyard or something? Any advice on how to conserve energy would be great!

you could use solar panels but their all expensive. houses in the 50's were not built that great so before you deal with the electricity I would deal with the insulation and window issue. A lot of houses from that period would use sawdust for insulation. work on sealing everything in the house and then go on to electricity
