” Three years ago, the Italian energy giant Eni began what is now a summer tradition: from June 1 to Sept. 1, the company sets the thermostat in its corporate office buildings 1 degree Celsius (1.8 degrees Fahrenheit) higher than it had in summers before 2007.
…
Last year, Eni calculates, that simple intervention saved 386,000 kilowatt hours of electricity, a 9.5 percent cut in energy consumption over the summer. “
Turn that thermostat one degree up and you will see the difference!

Become an Organ Donor
You won’t need your organs when you are dead, so why not give them to someone who needs it? Save the lives of up to eight people by placing yourself on the organ donors’ register in your country.
