Energy Tip-Car Washing

Well it is that time of year again, we all wantto be outside enjoying the weather. The grass isnt quite tall enough or ready to be mowed so we look for something to do. Before you trun on that garden hose, fill up the soapy bucket and bust out the sponges kee this tip in mind: Washing your car in a commercial car wash is better for the enviroment than doing it yourself. Commercial car washes not only use significantly less water per wash -up to 100 gallons less- but they often recycle and reuse rinse water. If every American who currently washes a vehicle at home chose instead to go to a professional car wash -just once- up to 8.7 billion gallons of water could be saved, and some 12 billion gallons of soapy polluted water could be diverted from the country's rivers, lakes, and streams.
