Who Saved Watt?!
My family uses compact flourescent light bulbs. Our next cars will be hybrids. We’d love to go solar when the price per watt for the panels comes down, and I support net metering to allow people to reduce their monthly bills by putting energy back onto the grid . We recycle religiously. We’re green or at least we’re trying to be.
So I made the Who Saved Watt?! site to a) encourage people to switch to CFs and learn other little conservation habits and b) add their saved watts to the aggregate total. I’d love to make the total interactive somehow, like a Google Map showing all the energy saved by locale. That’s for a future version.
Here’s my eco-friendly merit badge:

I saved
1147.5
watts!
