WHAT: May 1 is fast approaching – the day Green Plug names three winners in its “What’s Under Your Desk?” sweepstakes. Fortunately, it takes just moments to take a digital pic of that mess of cords, cables and power bricks that connect you to your local utility company. And just a moment or two more to sign the online petition advocating a Universal Green Power standard. You can’t win if you don’t play.
WHO: Green Plug, Inc., the pioneering developer of digital technology enabling real-time collaboration between electronic devices and their power sources.
WHERE:
WHEN: Now through May 1.
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.

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