Video Cartoon Animation "Energy: let's save it!"

On 12 November 2008, the European Commission launched a new Cartoon Animation video, Energy: Let's save it!

This video contains only images and music, without a single word, making it suitable for distribution throughout Europe, although the title page is available in both German (DE: Energie: Jetzt wird gespart!) and French (FR: Energie: chasse au gaspi!)

Viewers can enjoy the energy saving tips, and save money… A family starts wasting energy carelessly and unknowingly, from the moment they wake up. Until they realize that something is going wrong. In 3 minutes 40 seconds, this cartoon shows both the bad and the good behaviour in energy consumption. It presents, in a cartoon style, simple and basic energy saving tips to save the planet and to save money, would it be at home, at work, or on the way to work.
