Time to Flick Off

August 14, 2007 By: SoVeg Category: Flick Off 1 Comment →

I have an idea, flick off. If you leave a room, there is no need for that room to stay lit. If you are not watching the TV, why is it on? If your cell phone is fully charged, why is it still charging? Far too many people on this planet have developed these wasteful habits, and it is about time you break them.

light-switch1.jpgOne simple method that I have become a fan of, is the use of power bars. Most power bars have a switch that makes it easier than ever to flick off. Power is flowing through your electronics and appliances whether they are switched on or not. The power bar method is a fool proof method that assures you that you are not wasting electricity. Wasting electricity is not only emission causing, but it is also expensive. Power bills are higher than ever and the cost of electricity will of course continue to rise in the coming years.

Your power bill each month should state how many kWh you use daily, so challenge yourself and the others in your household. Set yourself some goals, and step all over them. You will be very surprised by the immense improvement in your killowatt-hour usage immediately if you keep this flick off mindset going. Let’s get started shall we?
