Queensland Unplugged
Thursday, 3 April 2008 is ‘Queensland Unplugged Day’.
Every appliance that uses standby power is wasting energy, generating greenhouse gas emissions and costing you money.
Standby power may not seem like a big deal but it all adds up. If every household in Queensland turned off just one TV when not in use rather than leaving it them on standby, it would save enough energy to power 4,300 homes!
Consider whether each of your appliances needs to be turned on all the time. You’ll probably find that very few do.
By turning off unnecessary standby power, you will save money, save energy and help save the environment.
Pledge today and turn off your standby power on 3 April.
