Here's an eye opener about your computer--
Just by pressing a single button, you can keep 2,000 to 4,000 pounds of greenhouse gas out of the atmosphere every year--How's that possible? According to Organic Style magazine, all you have to do is shut your computer off at night-- Some people leave their computers running 24/7, but even if they're in "sleep" mode, they're still using energy. By turning it off, you're saving half of the electricity your computer uses every day, and it'll have a huge impact on our planet's carbon-dioxide levels--
Or if you don't want to turn your computer off, you could simply go out and plant somewhere between a thousand and 6,000 trees this year, and the next, and the next--That's how much you'll be helping the atmosphere by switching your computer off. And if lowering carbon-dioxide levels in the atmosphere isn't enough motivation, leaving your computer off at night will make it last longer, too--That shutdown time reduces the heat stress and mechanical wear and tear on your system. The bottom line is, turn your computer off at night and you'll be doing the work of 6,000 trees a year.
