The weather is changing and it has been getting really chilly of late. Bummer! But when is cold not necessaily a bad thing? When doing your laundry! According to the U.S. Department of Energy, cold water uses approximately 90 percent LESS energy than hot water. That is a huge difference and a very effortless change you can make. If every household in the U.S. washed four out of five loads in cold water instead of hot, approximately 50 MILLION TONS of carbon emissions per year would be prevented. That's like having the same impact as removing 10 MILLION cars off the road.
Go clean! Go cold! Go green!
