Project of the Week: Power IT Down!

What if saving money and energy were as simple as the flip of a switch or the push of a button?

It is!

You can save millions of dollars (and our planet)
by powering down your computer every day.

But let’s start small. What if you were asked to power down just one day for starters?

HP, Citrix, Intel and GTSI are asking you to do just that –
the four companies have teamed up to host Power IT Down Day this Friday, August 27.

Here’s David Smith, CTO at Citrix Federal and Christina Morrison, Public Sector Marketing Manager
at HP to tell you more:


Oh, and think saving a few kilowatt hours won’t make a big difference? To demonstrate the benefits of Power IT Down Day and how energy savings can be put to good use, our sponsors will make a donation to Wounded Warrior Project. Last year, we donated $45,000!

You can find (and share!) more information about Power IT Down Day in the FAQ sheet below:

What do you think? Is this an effective way to raise awareness about saving energy?
