It's summer here. As you know the minute I can I head out and hang my clothes on my umbrella style clothes line.
I wish I could say that I am in the majority, that people all around are hanging out their laundry. Sadly, I am not.
People all over are still cramming clothes into the dryer despite the fact that it is 90 degrees out and those same clothes would dry just as well outside.
So I say to you all, try it. It's fun, all the cool kids are doing it, see?
Plus you can say you are being green, which is cool now. And it's retro, also cool.
As if all this wasn't reason enough, for actual stats and $ amounts look here. Project Laundry List is a treasure trove of information and resources.
And if those pictures from the Gulf make you feel sad and helpless, do something. Do something small to cut your energy consumption. Do something simple to show your children how to take care of the Earth. Yes, your towels will be a little stiff, but that's such a tiny sacrifice, and it's worth it, don't you think?
