Refrigerator

Your cold food simply cannot live without it (unless you don't mind melting ice). Not only did its function change the atmosphere of the kitchen forever, but the style and visual appeal of a particluar unit (stainless steel, ice dispenser, etc.) are usually what defines the look and value of the kitchen or even the entire house.

Unplug your cell phone charger

So you want something simple to do your part? Just unplug your cell phone charger.

When your phone is charging it's only using about 5% of the power it sucks from your outlet. That other 95% adds up to a lot of wasted energy, especially if you leave it plugged in minus the phone.

Of course you could get rid of that conventional charger all together and go wireless with Wild Charge, or opt for a solar powered charger. (Solar powered cell phones are still a little ways off.)

Soon your cell phone may even remind you to unplug. Last year, the European Commission's mobile industry task force (led by Nokia) announced that cell phones will include alerts to remind people to unplug the charger once the phone is fully charged.
