4 ways of how to save energy when doing laundry and water
1. Take a shower instead of taking a bath. Bathing consumes 160 liters of hot water; meanwhile showering consumes 50 to 60 liters. Bathing should not be a daily routine
2. If you change your tap to resource-economic taps, you can decrease up to 40% of your warm water energy use.
3. When you shower try to keep it at five minutes maximum, which is what is necessary, higher than that is just luxury and we can not afford it with the climate struggle today.
4. Air dry your laundry instead of using a tumbler or a drying cabinet. Using the tumbler takes three times more energy than the washing machine, so air drying is the best
Money is the opposite of the weather. Nobody talks about it, but everybody does something about it.
