Most of us don't realize or are simply unaware how much energy we waste by keeping TVs, computers, heaters and air conditioners on even when not needed. Its not only a waste of energy and money, but it has a big impact on our energy production machinery and global climate. We can reduce dependence on foreign oil and thus stop funding terrorism if we are more efficient. People need to be educated and I am sure they are smart enough to realize the benefits of efficiency.
