Greening Your Dishwasher

TreeHugger has an interesting article on how to make your dishwashing as green as possible.

Research conducted at the University of Bonn in Germany found that even the most frugal hand washer couldn’t compete with a modern dishwashing machine in efficiency. TreeHuger’s Christine Lepisto writes: “The Bonn study proves that the dishwasher uses only half the energy and one-sixth of the water, less soap too. Even the most sparing and careful washers could not beat the modern dishwasher.”
