I was watching the news last night and there was some report saying that we use far too much energy and we will have no natural resources left by 2050.
It said that one of the main energy wasters was leaving your TV on standby. I don't know about anyone else but I've never left a TV on standby ever, let alone overnight, and always switch it off by the button on the actual box, and I was just wondering how others leave their TV overnight? |

I never swithc off my tv. When im not watching it its always on stand by. I go sleep and school with it on stand by but if i went on holiday i would switch it off. Really bad habbit! My digital box in my room is never off because i need it in the morning for the time and i forget to sitch it off when i go to school. Ill try and cut down though!
