Don’t just switch off the television, switch off the computer too. Office workers who leave 2 million computers on every night are speeding up climate change, according to new research. One in five British white-collar workers told a survey that they left their computers on at least three times a week. Power stations generating that electricity emit 200,000 tonnes of carbon a year — equivalent to the pollution from all the cars in a city the size of Liverpool. TURN ‘EM OFF!

Now. how easy is that…
No excuse not to do so: let’s switch the computers off when not needed…for our kids future at least!
