If you are looking to make a green office, then you need to

Do you dash out the door at the end of every day and you turn off your computer, but forget to forget to turn off your monitor, cell phone, printer and everything else that is sucking up energy while you sleep? Have no fear, Ecostrip is here! This modified powerstrip will turn off everything plugged into it when you turn off your computer for the day. Only one switch to remember now.

According to their site:

This powerstrip saves 10% on your home or business electric bill.

The price of energy affects businesses, schools and homes worldwide. The USB EcoStrip 2.0 eliminates the flow of electricity to computer peripherals when the computer is turned off, thereby drastically reducing electricity bills in the home and workplace.

According to the Department of Energy, 75 percent of all household electricity consumption is consumed when products are turned off. This costs the average home almost $1,200 each year.

I will always be a nature

I will always be a nature lover! Well anyway,I also love to go on camping.Memorial Day marks the beginning with the backpacking season across the U.S. anyone who's a camper knows exactly what I am referring to. Beneficial breakfast camping recopies could be tough to come by, or cook, while in the wilderness. Even though you may not realize it, breakfast is a really tricky meal when it comes to cooking when camping outdoors. Pouring yourself a bowl of cereal isn't really truly perfect, and making an excellent breakfast can take a bit of work. Make certain you look up some good recipes for breakfast before you leave home.

Thanks for some updates on how we can have a greener office. Well, as the University of Michigan joined with Ford to have a competition to see who could make the finest Ford app. And fortunately the winner was the Caravan Track, and it is about to be tested in the Ford Fiesta. I guess this is also the time to test this ECOSTRIP. Well, this is modified powerstrip that will turn off everything plugged into it when you turn off your computer for the day. Power conserving energy really helps now!
