---A reduced thrust procedure is when you tell the engines to produce the thrust[[that would limit that TO on a hot day at a particular weight] that they would produce anyways---- IF it were a hotter day--except the day is just fine---but you've limited it anyways---so yes you put less fuel through the engines--but it mainly to be easy on those expensive babies though--as a slower climb has it's own associated penalties
