ENERGY STAR PROGRAMS
Now this is amazing-
According to Energy Star's Web site, the use of Energy Star appliances saved as much energy in 2006 as the equivalent gas emissions of 25 million cars. If Americans bought only Energy Star appliances for the coming year, the effect on greenhouse gases would equal the removal of 17 million cars from the roads!!!!
