Screensavers - A Big No!!

Well this being my first blog, I thought that what could be better than speaking of Environment and Gadgets combined !?!

I came accross this article which highlighted on how 'Australia's new eco-warrior' Telstra was doing a bit for the environment. They had removed all the screensavers from all its 36,000 employees' desktop and laptop, thus saving energy and CO2 emissions. They claim that it cuts 646 tons of CO2 emissions, the effect equivalent to removing 140 cars from the road for a year...yes one whole year. Thats something ofcourse(Am not sure though regarding how many of their employees use car everyday to commute, but thats another issue). But anyway its nice to see corporates do their bit.

What could be the quantum if each big and small company did the same. oh well..What the heck, it could start with me..and of course You!!
