Pro-environment Groups Want You to Use Your Dishwasher
the staff of the Ridgewood blog
Ridgewood NJ, if you looking to save water don’t forget to use your dish washer . Nearly one in five dishwashers in the US—totaling 17 million households—sit idle largely because people think they’re ineffective and wasteful. Both assumptions, it turns out, are wrong.
Modern models only use about 10% of the water that cleaning dishes by hand does, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. P&G wants to take advantage of this fact, which has the added benefit of being touted by pro-environment groups, by pumping out a steady stream of ads highlighting it alongside Cascade product upgrades.
