turn it off. turn it all off!

I have long been a computer junkie. An addict of the connectivity highway. Technology instantly at my fingertips. I know it, I acknowledge, I accept it. But all this talk of energy-saving got me rethinking my perspective.

With a little help from my favorite IT guy, I set my work computer to adhere to some energy saving features for the Mac, including sleep mode when I’m away from my desk. What was especially cool was the start up/shut down scheduling feature as I do not like waiting for a computer to boot up.

one good thing—a small step toward change

On Tuesday I mentioned something that I wanted to talk about but it wasn’t ready. Well today is the day, ladies and gents! Debuting right here, right now is my new blog, one green thing—making eco-friendly changes one day at a time. This Earth Day has left more of an impression than normal and made me really start thinking. So in an attempt to document and motivate myself to do something for Mamma Earth each day, this blog will pave the way. Join me by pledging to do one eco-friendly thing per day. Let’s make some change!
