Selected page

After being hung up overnight in a breezy location, shirts worn once (even in the tropics!) smell quite fresh enough to wear again.

Washing and drying clothing are common activities that can use a lot of energy and water and produce large amounts of wastewater - if we aren't careful. But there are many things, most importantly washing in cold water and line drying, which are not only greener, but will make your clothes last longer. Just don't leave your clothes outside too long, or they may fade.

Washing is also very laborious where there are no washing machines.

However there are ways to reduce energy, water consumption and pollution, and reduce effort.

Selected quote

Jane Goodall
There would be very little point in my exhausting myself and other conservationist themselves in trying to protect animals and habitats if we weren't at the same time raising young people to be better stewards.
— Jane Goodall
