Lower Your Carbon Footprint at Home

Check out www.sokets.com . They will be coming out with a consumer energy management solution so you can easily reduce your energy consumption with a "hibernation" approach. Why use energy when you don't need it?

If we all did this, think of the impact we'd contribute toward solving climate change problems without any sacrifice.

I saw these guys present as well, and their hearts (and brains!) are in the right place! I think their passion for making truly useful products that make an impact is great. Looking forward to using their products when they start rolling it out this fall.

Smart Strip

On August 24th, 2007 Gregory Heller said:

I recently bought a "Smart Strip" from Gaiam/Solar Living. It has a "control outlet" that you plug your mine devise into, like your computer. when you shut your computer off (or unplug your laptop) the power strip shuts off a bunch of other outlets for peripherals (like a monitor or printer, scanner, etc).

It is hard to tell, because i travel a bunch, but from one month to the next it looks like my energy bill dropped by 20% (which is not that much since i live alone and don't use much energy to begin with!)
