Cell Phone Chargers

I wonder what the impact would be if everyone in the country unplugged their cell phone chargers (for good). Phone chargers plugged in at your home or office are a direct draw on your energy consumption. Furthermore, most people leave the chargers plugged in even when not using them.

Why not use a phone charger in your car? It seems to me that the energy created by your alternator is going to be created anyway. There is almost zero negative effect by using the 12v power outlet in your car to power up your cell.
