Green Tip of the Week 2/3/10: Shrink That Foot

Fairfield University’s carbon footprint is shrinking, says David Frassinelli, head of the Campus Sustainability Committee (CSC).  Congrats to us!

What can we do to shrink that footprint further?

David advises three simple things:

(1) Unplug your TV and (2) your computer when you’re not using them.  They’re huge power drains.

And (3) don’t use the handicap paddles on the building doors unless you really-truly need them, because they use electricity and let heat escape from the building.
