Currys boss calls for greener TVs

The boss of the UK's biggest electrical retailer has called on manufacturers to phase out the stand-by function on goods such as TVs to help save energy.
John Clare, the chief executive of DSG International, which owns Curry's and PC World, said that companies had to react to changes in customer behaviour.
Analysts have claimed that the average British household spends £37 a year by leaving appliances on stand-by.
