About a year ago I wrote a post ‘Use Black Google and Save Energy‘ but today Google has taken it seriously for the Earth Hour this year. Earth Hour is an international event to switch of lights and unwanted appliances for 1 hour which is at 29th March for this year from 8 pm to 9 pm local time.
Also I mentioned in the earlier post that if all the Google pages (including search results) were black it would save 750 Megawatt Hours a year around the world. Though Google has tuned off their lights only in their homepage for this Earth Hour.
If you have a computer and you keep your monitors running even if you are not working, then try to switch off your monitors and save energy. Read these staggering numbers of what happens if your monitor is left running for a year.
Read how you can automatically switch off the monitor after specified time of non-usage? and also if you are not using your computers while your sleeping, lets shut down and save energy.
So did you switch off your lights and unwanted appliances for this Earth Hour, write down what you did….
wow! cool looking. But the original is the best i guess
I also found a site called http://www.iDarkle.com. It similar to Blackle only the search results are nicer looking.
