We've got some great snaps over the past few weeks of what's been wasting energy on campus - & we encourage everyone on campus to be proactive and keep their eyes peeled! See something on that reeeeally shouldn't be? find the switch If you can Shut that bad boy DOWN :)#WattsOnUCC

@mchu_ucc @UccSplas @italian_ucc @FrenchDeptUCC @GermanUCC @UCC_German Thanks for your tweet! Really important that everyone uses projectors responsibly and shuts them down after use! Keep sending in your pictures and letting us know about it so together we can change! #WattsOnUCC

The irony of this in an empty room, wasting energy and the projector bulb ⁦@WattsOnUCC⁩ ⁦@UccSplas⁩ ⁦@italian_ucc⁩ ⁦@FrenchDeptUCC⁩ ⁦@GermanUCC⁩ ⁦@UCC_German⁩

Whenever you're leaving a lecture theater, check to see if there are switches to turn off the lighting. If there are none, it means the lighting system is motion activated and it will switch off after 15 minutes of no movement #WattsOnUCC

Great pic sent in to us through our SnapChat wattsonucc! Add us ☺️ and quick tip: if lights are on in an empty lecture room like this, have a quick look to see if there's a switch… instagram.com/p/BpETaiflUAY/…

Listen to @VeronicaRoseOR on her interview with @UCC983FM new show, The Green Step! Offshore wind, the #WattsOnUCC campaign and Ireland's energy future are all covered in this interview (with some Neil Horan songs thrown in for good measure!) soundcloud.com/user-222438386…

Some great snaps being sent into us here @WattsOnUCC! Keep up the good work everyone! We will be on @UCC983FM THIS tuesday at lunchtime talking about our campaign #WattsOnUCC we'd love you to tune in!

@Cee_Bee_Gee Thank you so much for that catch! Enabling sleep function on campus projectors and screens is a great idea, even if it may be a little inconvenient during lecture time it would be worth it! thanks for the suggestion & we will pass it on to Buildings and Estates office here @ UCC

Thanks @DiarmaidTwomey ! Abandoned screens and projectors left running have been the worst offenders on our @WattsOnUCC page! Great point - and a welcome reminder to switch them off before we leave, also an idea to enable sleep mode on computers/projectors!

thanks for the shout out @Cee_Bee_Gee ! Enabling sleep function would be a great idea! #WattsOnUCC

Great to see this article published and many thanks to @UCCExpress for highlighting the importance of energy conservation! #WattsOnUCC

This week I will be going completely plastic free along with the rest of the SU and documenting it to show how much plastic is used in our every day lives!

Thanks @Spudacus12 :) Will pass this on to our friends at UCC Western Gateway Building! #WattsOnUCC

Don't forget to turn the projectors off after using them! Thanks to the student who sent this in last week! Keep sending in your snaps of energy waste on campus to us here @wattsonucc… instagram.com/p/BoqkpgNDrhj/…
