Friday: Power Down Day

Minimizing your power usage is an important part of reducing your carbon footprint!

You can do this by turning off devices when you’re not using them, or avoid using electricity when you don’t have to!

But just because you turned your electronics off, doesn’t mean energy isn’t being used.

The NRDC estimates that the average U.S. household would save $165 a year and prevent 44 million metric tons of carbon dioxide pollution by unplugging their devices instead of just turning them off.
