On the basis of the energy data, around 120 tonnes of CO2 have been kept out of the atmosphere, particularly as a result of the actions of the Eco-Power Rangers who number over 560 and equate for 16% of the students living in residences at the University. The energy saved is enough to power a 15W energy saving lightbulb for over 2125 years!

Well done everyone and keep up the good work when you move into your own houses to keep your bills and carbon emissions as low as possible. Remember that every single action makes a difference. Don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise
