Do your laundry FAST!!!

Many people think they know how to do laundry. And they do. But here are some extra tips to save time and energy. When you do your laundry you should really think about it. If you do a large load instead of a small one then you will be saving water. When you do your laundry, if you are doing more than one load don't start the dryer with the first load until the second load is ready to be dried. that way you will be drying one after the other and you will reduce hot air left in the drier. Don't overly Dry clothes. This makes them wrinkly and wastes energy. And last but not least, if you have the chance AIR DRY!!! It saves energy, it's good for your clothes, and it makes them smell good.

Shibuya Energy

In Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan, engineers are working very hard to keep the energy levels up. They installed platforms all over the city so that when cars drive by or people walk by, the occurring vibrations create energy. This could help our country a lot in places where it isn't possible to put a giant windmill or solar panels, such as in the city. I think our country should look into this new technology and start using it.

unplug it!!!

I know that you all know to unplug your phone chargers when you aren't using them. But, most people still leave their phones charging for too long. I recently found out that my phone only takes about two hours to fully charge and I had been leaving it on the charger for at least 8 hours a night. That is a lot of wasted energy. So, do an experiment. Plug in your phone during the day and see how long it takes to charge. You might just be surprised.
