Eco Button - Energy Savings for your PC
It is very common to leave computers on all the time - even when not in use. 
Most PCs have a hibernate or suspend or sleep mode but many that do not use these features as they seem too complex. Eco Button makes this process easy and gives you an idea of how much energy and Co2 you are saving!

A domestic user running a single computer can make a valuable contribution to the environment by saving over *650 pounds of CO2 per year and approximately *$30-50 in electricity per year by using the ecobutton™ regularly. There are an estimated 60 million home PCs in the USA so collectively, through nationwide power saving routines, it could be possible to stop 8.4 million tons of CO2 from passing into the atmosphere through computers otherwise being left running idle during short breaks. Remember, this only includes estimates for the times when you take a break, many computers are left running over night and in these cases, the wasted CO2 and electricity costs are much higher.
And because the ecobutton™ stays illuminated even during ecomode, this can also provide a useful reminder that all unnecessary computers, lighting, heating and air conditioning etc... should be be switched off when not in use.
