Computers: Making yours more efficient

There are a few things you can do to make your computer more efficient:

• One of the biggest things you can do is to either turn the computer completely off or suspend operations.

• Also, the longer you can keep your computer alive the lower your carbon footprint will be. A lot more energy goes into making a computer than is usually used throughout it’s life.

• When you’re ready to get a new computer get one that is specifically designed for efficiency, and most laptops are more efficient than desktops.
