The truth is that far too many people leave their computers on when they are not in use. In fact, only 36 percent of office desktop users power down their computers when they leave work.1 That can add up to significant energy expenditure and carbon emissions.
These days, many businesses are paying attention to energy costs while also looking for ways to reduce their impact on the environment. By making one small change, we can each make a difference. Simply turning off computers at night can save a company with 1,000 PCs over US$26,000 a year and reduce carbon emissions by 187 tons.2 That’s change that’s great for the environment and your company’s bottom line.
Visit Power To Change to join the effort. There, you can download a widget that reminds you to turn off your computer and computes energy savings for you and everyone participating in the campaign. Engage in a global community of like-minded individuals all making this change for the better. Start today: turn off your computer when you go home tonight. And then—do it again tomorrow.
Spread the word. Small changes can make a world of difference.
