The government and big companies needs to stop just leaving it up to consumers responsibility on saving natural resources. It needs to START at the factories not at the consumer level! Companies need to create electronic products that will terminate any electrical use when powered off/shutdown and not trickle IN electricity(Phantom power use) - these items need to be created at the manufacturing level and not have to leave it to the consumer to unplug or have to buy power strips! It does not take a rocket scientist to put these thoughts into the process and while its good that the consumer cuts down on usage it would be BEST to start at the manufacturing process. Imagine how much more we will save if this were put to good use? This article is nice and its good to know but not good enough..
