Why not add to dad's list of heroic achievements this Father's Day by helping him save the planet?

Click here to begin your search for savvy gadgets galore. My favorite is the Smart Strip, which saves on energy consumption and costs by automatically shutting down your computer and peripherals, or TV, DVD, etc. depending on where you choose to plug it in. This handy little number will also save me the hassle of having to constantly remind my dear hubby to "turn off the computer!" when he is finished using it. I just love multi-purpose gifts, and with the 7 outlets in this strip, many purposes will be served.

Besides, when was the last time you ever heard of socks or a necktie rescuing the planet?
