Want to curb your power use? Start at the library

Ever wondered which of your electronic gadgets drains the most energy? Now you can found out thanks to the Sacramento Public Library and Sacramento Municipal Utility District. The organizations recently paired up to make available two Kill A Watt EZ power monitors at each of the Sacramento Public Library’s 28 branches. You can rent one of the monitors just as you would a book. Take it home, and start measuring how much energy each of your appliances uses. From there, you can easily decide which ones to unplug more often to save energy and dough. Visit www.saclibrary.org for more information.
