Not too dirty, wash at 30.
Global warming is one of the toughest challenges facing us today.
We are all in some way responsible and need to take action now to attempt to slow the process down.
One simple and easy measure that can save 40% of energy usually used, is to turn your washing machine down to 30 on as many washes as you can.
This immediately reduces your environmental impact and you are immediately making a difference.....EASY !
Why not visit the ARIEL website below and join the pledge to get more and more people turning their washing down to 30. Select the 'do a good turn section' and turn the dial.
On the Ariel site there are some interesting facts about just how much energy you can save by turning to 30:
- If you turn to 30 over one year, this would save enough energy to watch 1500 episodes of your favourite TV soap
- Boil enough water for 2600 cups of tea
- If you can get 5 friends doing a good turn you will all save the equivalent CO2 released by driving 786 miles
It's worth doing.
