This is a story that's been doing the rounds for the past few days. It sounds like pure speculation currently, and let's just hope it is. According to a report by The Sun, Conservatives in the UK are proposing a ban on plasma TVs and other energy-inefficient electronics.
Under the new proposal, a limit would be placed on electronics energy consumption and products found exceeding the limits would be banned. This is making the UK Consumer Electronics industry really worried. Needless to say, techies and geeks might have to relocate to less green climes if the unthinkable happens.
Devices that have a standby mode or that use standby lights that stay on indefinitely will also come under the screener. The Sun reports that around 2 percent of Britain’s total electricity use is currently taken up by appliances left on standby rather than being switched off.
Currently The TV industry is assumed to be gearing up to defend its products and emphasize on their green-friendly features and advancements if any. Let's hope nothing similar happens here in India, for the results could be catastrophic. Watch this space for more news...
