According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the world population is expanding at an alarming rate. The world reached 1 billion people in 1800, 2 billion by 1922, and over 6 billion by It is estimated that the population will swell to over 9 billion by That means that if the world’s natural resources were evenly distributed, people in 2050 will only have 25% of the resources per capita
The average American household spends about $1,400 each year on energy bills.
On an average most large corporations spent about $100 million on energy in At the current rate of usage, costs could easily double by 2010.
Turning off your desktop computer and monitor for two additional hours per day could reduce your annual electric consumption by up to 1.5 percent.
It’s a common misconception that screen savers reduce energy used by monitors. This is not true. Automatically switching to sleep mode or manually turning monitors off is always the better energy-saving strategy.

4. Energy Saver Toolkit
The Energy Saver Toolkit is a free utility that allows system administrators to govern power management capabilities of all desktop and system monitors throughout their corporate environment. Conserve energy, reduce costs, and help protect the environment—all from a single familiar Web-based console. The toolkit enables administrators to designate monitor shut down (sleep) policies at select intervals. The result is a low-impact method of conserving energy and reducing costs. Shutdown policies for 10-, 15-, and 20-minute intervals
