UK: Workers urged to turn off computers

Workers have been urged to help tackle climate change by taking simple measures such as switching off computers and lights, reducing waste and walking or cycling to the office.

The TUC called on people to “think green” in the workplace to cut energy use and do more to protect the environment.

TUC General Secretary Brendan Barber, said: “More and more people are recycling and reducing energy use and waste at home. But for many people work is still a green-free zone, despite being the biggest polluter and power user in the UK.
