More than 30 billion kilowatt-hours of energy is wasted because many of us simply forget to shut down our computers when we aren't using them. If we could just improve the efficiency of how we use our PCs, the savings in energy costs would be over $3 billion! The CO2 emissions from just 15 computers are equivalent in energy terms to the gas consumption used by one car.

LocalCooling will:
-Cut our energy bills
-Reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by reducing your PC's power consumption
-Improve our overall computing experience and efficiency
-Show us, in detail, how much you have saved since installing the software.
LocalCooling saves power by either turning off your screen, putting your hard drive to sleep when not being used, or shutting down your PC when you are away.
