ATTENTION, GEEKS AND GAMERS! DO SOMETHING GREAT FOR THE PLANET, AND FOR YOURSELF
SUBMIT A PHOTO OF THE POWER CORD CHAOS AT YOUR FEET, AND YOU MAY WIN GREEN FROM GREEN PLUG

/Energy and Oil News Articles/ - ENCINO, CA, April 23, 2008 - WHAT: In honor of Earth Day, take a brief break from the PC, grab the nearest digital camera, and shoot that mess of cords, cables and power bricks that connect you to your local utility company. Submit your photo to Green Plug's "What's Under Your Desk?" sweepstakes and you may help rid the planet of that tangled web of wasteful connectors.

WHO: Green Plug, Inc., the pioneering developer of digital technology enabling real-time collaboration between electronic devices and their power sources.

WHERE: Log on to http://greenplugcontest.typepad.com/

WHEN: Now through Earth Day, April 22

WHY: The sweepstakes highlights the need for a single, universal power architecture for electronic devices. Such a standard could prevent several hundred million power supplies every year from being tossed into landfills - maximizing resources, minimizing solid waste, and conserving energy.

PRIZES: 1st Place: Lunch in Beverly Hills with "green advocates" Christopher Knight and Adrianne Curry, co-hosts of the VH-1 reality show, "My Fair Brady"

2nd Place: $500 gift certificate to Wal-Mart

3rd Place: $250 donation to your favorite green nonprofit organization, courtesy of Green Plug.

BACK STORY: According to a new nationwide survey, conducted by Synovate for Green Plug, more than 60 percent of American consumers regard the consumer electronics status quo as "wasteful" or "frustrating." A staggering 379 million discarded and obsolete external power supplies are destined to end up in U.S. landfills this year alone. Green Plug technology minimizes solid waste by enabling consumers to keep their chargers for use with future devices after their current devices have become obsolete.
