Unplug your charged cell phone to conserve energy

Unplug your charged cell phone to conserve energy:

Cell phones of the future will have reminders built in that tell you to unplug once the battery is fully charged, CNET reports.

If 10 percent of the world's cell phone owners did this, the group's final report said, it would reduce energy consumption by an amount equivalent to that used by 60,000 European homes per year.

Who knew such a little thing could make such a difference?
