Use your phone instead of your computer.
When you have something to say to someone, there are lots
of ways you could do so.
But what's the
most energy efficient way to communicate? While letter writing conveys
a certain personalisation, email seems
easier (and faster). But neither snail mail nor electronic correspondence uses
less energy than
the newfangled text message. So, if it's short and sweet, save the carbon emissions of
your computer and learn T9 (Text on 9 keys). Charging your cell afterwards
will use less electricity than charging your laptop, so you'll save money, too.
Of course, you could always call someone with
that snazzy phone of yours.
