Taken from April 2007 issue of Glamour magazine. I thought these facts were interesting:
10 times as much energy is wasted when you run a computer screen saver instead of using sleep mode.
14 plastic grocery bags contain enough petroleum to fuel a car for a mile. Make friends with a cloth tote
20 gallons of water go down the drain daily when you have a drip-drip-drip faucet. Call the plumber!
75% of energy used to power electronic items is consumed while they're plugged in but not in use.
31,600 planes could be built with the amount of soda cans and other aluminum stuff thrown away every year.
100,000,000 trees are made into junk mail every single year.
I know I'm guilty of some of the above. Recycle those cans! |
