Most computers waste half of the energy delivered from the wall – wasting money, wasting energy, and generating excess heat. However, most people do not know that there are easy ways to make computing practices greener and less wasteful.

This is where you come in. Pick up a camera and create a video telling the Climate Savers Computing story. The challenge is to develop original and creative videos that educate, entertain, and/or inform others about the importance of energy efficient computing to the global environment.
How do we spread the word about slowing climate change through energy efficient computing?
How do poor computing practices waste energy?
What will the impact of better power management have on our environment?
What does sustainable computing mean to you?

Your voice counts – so tell a friend, tell the world, and tell the electronics industry that energy efficient products are important. Check out some of the other videos for inspiration. Let your imagination go wild.

Winners will receive prizes including cash, Specialized bicycles, HP laptops, and Microsoft software. We can’t wait to see what you create.
