Just turn it off.

The best thing you can do to reduce your electronics energy use is it to turn off equipment — like computer monitors and printers — when you're not using them. Activate power-saving features on your computers and office equipment so they'll shut down when you're not using them.

For equipment like DVD players, TVs, stereos, computers and kitchen appliances, use Smart Power Strips to cut all of power to the appliances. Many electronics go into standby mode when you turn them off and will continue to draw a small amount of power.
