In my view right now I can see six smartphone and tablet chargers. They’re all plugged in, and there are no devices attached to them. How much power are they using? Should I unplug them?
Also, give a thought to the environmental cost of these continuously-running chargers. Millions of chargers left plugged in 24/7/365 translates into millions of kilowatt hours consumed every year. And each kilowatt hour equals about a pound of CO2 being released into the atmosphere.
With that in mind, maybe we should all unplug our chargers when they’re not in use.
