Page 1: Do BETTER. UNPLUG IT

20% of the electricity you use every day is from idle plugged in appliances such as toasters, TVs, and laptop computers.

Do BETTER. UNPLUG IT.

Page 2: Do BETTER. UNPLUG IT

Even when un-used, microwaves left plugged-in use the energy equivalent

to an ENTIRE laptop battery or 14 iPhone batteries!

Do BETTER. UNPLUG IT.

If every American home replaced just one light bulb with an Energy Star bulb, we would save enough energy to light 3 million homes for a year!

Do BETTER. SWITCH IT OUT.

Page 4: Do BETTER. UNPLUG IT

Did you know that LED light blubs use 8 times less the amount of energy than

regular incandescent light blubs?

By switching out your light blubs, you are both reducing your whole energy consumption 9.5% AND helping to eliminate waste from landfills - since LEDs can be used

for DECADES!

Did you know elevators consume 17.5Wh per person every day?

By simply traversing 2 floors in an elevator, you could fully charge a Smartphone!

Do BETTER. TAKE THE STAIRS.

Page 6: Do BETTER. UNPLUG IT

Did you know you burn 5 calories each time you walk a stair? The

average person takes the elevator enough to cover 200 stairs everyday - that’s 500 calories a day! This could

burn ONE pound of fat per week!
