Oct 7 Vampire Energy infographic video & chart

http://good.is/ Vampire Energy, we're exploring it for Earth Day 2008. GOOD warns about your household appliances that suck energy just by being plugged in, even if they aren't turned on. We call this wicked waste of power "Vampire Energy." WAHAHAHA!

From GOOD magazine, they created an infographic video about Vampire Energy, all of the energy used by electronics in your house while you are not actively using them. The chart itself from the magazine is fairly simple chart, but I really like it. It's effective getting the message across with simple graphics.
