So what is the solution?  SCE suggests unplugging consumer electronics when they are not in use.  A stunning energy fact: even when turned off, CD players in the U.S. consume enough energy in one year to power the Las Vegas Strip for six months.

As a consumer, you do have choices.  You can select consumer electronic items with the “Energy Star” rating, as these products use less energy, and this has a direct impact on your ability to create a greener home and impact your wallet by controlling soaring energy costs!

You can also select items with fewer “bells and whistles”.  For example, I have a clock in my kitchen, and I do not need redundant clocks on my kitchen small appliances.  I try to buy small appliances that do the same job, but have fewer features, and they also use less energy.   I am also not setting dozens of clocks around the entire house anytime there is a brown out or power outage!

And, as someone who LOVES to cook, I strive to use fewer electronics in my cooking, and more of my own personal energy.  I rarely, if ever, use my hand mixer any more, I prefer to do that work myself (and give my arms a great workout!).  Ditto with the food processor.  While it saves time to quickly “chop” veggies in my food processor, I can save electricity and money by taking a few more moments to chop them myself.   There is something really enjoyable about chopping veggies and other foods and putting that care and love into the meal I cook for my family.

Do you have any special energy saving tips to share?  We would love to hear from you!

Green Printing Resource

Green office home has recently been faced with the fact that our 9 year old printer has given up on us.  It took its last brave gasp…and now I am faced with having to buy a new printer.  While starting to look for a new printer, I also really evaluated how “green” I am, my business is, and even my family is, in our combined printing habits.  Shockingly, the proof was not only in my home office, in my recycling pile, but also in the receipts that I have accumulated and tallied.   I honestly cannot say that I realized how incredibly much that copy paper and ink cartridges were truly costing me!  OUCH!

Unfortunately, it is tough to print “less”.  But I know that I can print “smarter”.

I found that I could go far greener with a fantastic resource, ecoPrint2.  I love their claim of “Saving the World, One Printer at a time”.  Well, I am certainly signing up my printer to print greener and help save natural resources! 

They offer two key products, ecoPrint2:  Ink and Paper Saver and ecoPrint2:  Ink and Toner Saver.  What are these products?

ecoPrint2 Pro:  Ink and Paper Saver is a convenient download in which you can cut down on both ink and paper usage.  How?   ecoPrint Pro Ink and Paper Saver is a printer driver that helps you control the ink you want to use and how you want your pages arranged so you maximize your paper usage.  You can cut your ink usage by 3/4, print your document on only one page, and even combine pages from different documents…and…DO ALL THREE AT ONCE!  So cool!  Works for inkjet and laser printers, and your print quality is not sacrificed. 

ecoPrint2:  Ink and Toner Saver is another download which is a background application that allows you to cut up to 3/4 of your ink usage with one click.  You can set your ink and toner ratios, and even set ink saving profiles, still get high print quality and track your ink savings with a handy savings calculator! Save Ink, Save Money, Save the World with ecoPrint2 Ink and Toner Saver.

For a small business owner, this could save hundreds, even THOUSANDS of dollars each year.  For your student, this is a great gift to help them to save money and still produce high quality school and college products.  For a larger business, I can hardly think of the savings, not to mention the amazing way in which any business can make a commitment to improving not only their bottom line, but also the environment.  Want to know what your savings could be in ink, paper, even water and solid waste?

Immediately visit the ecoPrint2 website and calculate your printer’s ecological footprint (sit down for this exercise!) and see how ecoPrint2 can help you not only impact the environment, but also your budget.   Calculate the savings for your printer, your small business printer, your students’ printing needs, even calculate the savings if you are an office manager or operations manager struggling to cut costs in a smart way.  To demonstate, here is my calculation just using the numbers for my “home” printing use (mostly forms for kids’ school and activities, the kids’ school projects, etc) I found the following:
