When my family was stationed in Bremerhaven, Germany, there was only one English-speaking channel for us to watch. And it was produced by the military at that. No advertisement was allowed other than a ton of PSAs and community announcements.
One of the PSAs would always encourage the military families to conserve energy. There was the energy rapper who rapped about turning off the lights when we left a room. It worked, well, for me. I may not always turn off my laptop when I step away, but I definitely don’t leave the lights on in a room that I’m not in.
