Powering Off Your Computer Could Save You Money

How many times have you been told to "turn off that light before you leave the room?" How often did you acually turn off the lights before leaving the room?

It turns out that turning off unused appliances could save you as much as thirty percent on your energy bill, according to an article by Jim Witken in the New York Times.

Witken's article describes a monitor that wirelessly connects to a home power meter and sends real-time data to consumers regarding the amount of energy used by the home. With data about how much energy your home is using, you can see how much turning off those unused computers, televisions, and even lightbulbs in unoccupied rooms will really save you.

Try reducing your energy use today, and keep and eye out for the savings on your next utility bill!
