Summer is coming and it's time to take full advantage of free solar power. Let the sun get your whites whiter and feeling truly fresh as a spring day without the toxic frangrances!
This month, choose the challenge that works for you...
1. Hang 100% of your laundry for the month of June
2. Try 50%, either lights or darks
3. More than you do now, even if it's just a few items from every load.
Why bother?
You'll save money (more than $100/year on electric bill for most households)
You'll conserve energy and the environment.
Your clothes last longer. Where do you think lint comes from?
Sunlight bleaches and disinfects
Clothes dryer fires account for about 15,600 structure fires, 15 deaths, and 400 injuries annually. The yearly national fire loss for clothes dryer fires in structures is estimated at $99 million.(U.S)
