Quick Tip- Dump your desktop

Laptop’s use on average 90% less energy than the standard desktop.

If you work in an office consider hitting up your IT department for a laptop (hint: push the ‘I’ll be more productive cause I can work anywhere now!’ angle.)

If you still have a desktop at home think about how convenient it would be to cart your laptop to your backyard on a nice day or the local coffee shop when you have cabin fever.
