Default Re: Cold water wash challenge

Found this estimate of annual saving by switching to cold water in BL magazine

SWITCH TO COLD WATER = $58

You may shy away from washing clothes in cold water, but with specially formulated detergents, you can conserve energy and funds while getting your whites white. According to Tide’s online calculator (tide.com/tidecoldwater), if you convert four loads each week from hot to cold, you’ll save $58 in a year. Don’t you just love when do-gooding puts green in your pocket?
