The 90-Day Plan: DAY 33

DAY 33

 

Washing machines and dishwashers are great devices; just make sure to run them FULLY LOADED.  These appliances use a lot of energy and water; dishwashers use between 20-30 gallons per wash and washing machines use between 40-55 gallons. 

 

Challenge:  Why is it a good idea to hold off using these appliances during or shortly after a storm?
