The cable TV boxes in your home use more electricity than your refrigerator.
Natural Resources Defense Council [PDF]:
In 2010, the electricity required to operate all U.S. set-top boxes was equal to the annual household electricity consumption of the entire state of Maryland, resulted in 16 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions, and cost households more than $3 billion.
Another great reason to cut the cord.
