Around the world on 6th March, actions are being organized to save energy. It is a day that encourages us to act as individuals for the benefit of the community, drawing attention to the fact that with a little attention we can save a lot of energy and therefore money in our households. The sum of our individual savings, on a "many little ones make a difference" basis, will ultimately have a positive impact on the world's energy resources. The world's population continues to grow while the amount of resources per capita is decreasing.
