When shopping around for electronics, it is important for us to make sure that the piece of appliance that we are purchasing, be it a computer, washer or a TV, is environmentally friendly. Using an energy efficient electrical gadget will significantly reduce the carbon footprint of your household in the long run.
There are several things to look out for when getting an electrical gadget. You can inquire if they are made from sustainable materials. If that is not viable you can at least make sure that the product is Energy Star compliant. The US Department of Energy and the US Environmental Protection agency have come up with the Energy Star program to promote energy efficiency in electronic products.
The Samsung LN52B750 is a 52-inch LCD HDTV and is currently one of the best in the market (whether it terms of performance or energy efficiency). It has a beautiful design and would make a stylish addition to any living room. The images produced on this LCD HDTV model is just stunning. The blacks are very deep, colors accurate and it also comes with an impressive feature set. Once connected to the internet, you can have access to a variety of Yahoo Widgets and other streaming content.
Most importantly this model is Energy Star compliant. It uses no energy when it is on standby mode and uses just 191.15 watt of energy when it is on. On average, it will cost you just $41.17 (US dollars) to run this HDTV annually. Another important thing to look out for is the Greenpeace policy rating. This is a rating based on the global policies and the practices carried out by the manufacturer in the production of the product and also its accountability after the product is discarded. Samsung has a rating of 7.1 (10 being the best).
