Green Tip of the Week

 


Those tell tale stand-by lights!

Before going to bed at night have a look around the house for appliances on standby. Check the TV, video/DVD player, radios, computer and phone chargers. Ideally they should all be turned off at the socket as, otherwise, they are wasting electricity, and costing you money, as you sleep. Some television sets use 50% of operational energy while on standby so leaving it on standby from midnight until 6 p.m. next evening is equivalent to having it turned on for 9 hours.
