It has shown that every small effort can make a difference and all of us have the ability to change the world for the better.
The creative solution is simple. Simply download a unique desktop widget from the website which will remind you to turn off your computer at the end of each day. When you do this simple act everyday, the widget translates your action into positive environmental impact that you can see ie. cars of the road, energy saved etc. This information is updated on the website where you can see your collective impact amongst your friends, as a country and the rest of the world. To spread the word, email signatures, digital badges for Facebook and banners for your personal blogs are available for download. Press kits to journalists and Power To Change blog help maintain conversations around the campaign. Wall posters and keyboard reminder stickers were distributed as collaterals to remind everyone to play their part and turn off their computers at the end of each day.
Objective: 64% of PC users do not turn off their computers after use and it is estimated that there are more than a billion PCs in the world now. This leads to a huge amount of energy wastage that adds to the global carbon footprint. HP recognizes that it is not enough to create environmentally friendly products. As a leader in I.T., they need to educate and get people to use I.T. responsibly. Target Audience: All PC users, home and office. Insight: When we looked at people's attitude towards the environment, we found that they want to do their bit but feel that their single effort is not enough. With this insight, we created a campaign to encourage everyone to turn off their computers everyday and show them the collective positive impact when individuals come together.
