PCs are wonderful machines, but they can use a lot of energy. Of course, there are some ways to reduce energy usage, and the best way to do so is to put your computer in stand-by mode whenever it is not being used. For those who want more control over their PCs, there are energy saving programs, which can automatically put your computer in energy saving mode by scheduling stand-by mode. It is a good idea to schedule stand-by mode if you know you are going to be away from your computer. One of such energy saving programs is called Edison, and the company promises that if only 1% of computer users used this software, it would result in reducing the environmental impact by 7 billion pounds of CO2. I have to admit that it sounds quite impressive to me.
