Appliances (Before you buy...)
The smallest appliance decision can have a significant impact on global pollution emissions. Replacing an antiquated 1980’s refrigerator with a model that complies with modern, more stringent energy use codes will prevent the consumption of 800 kWh per year which equates to 1,600 pounds of carbon emissions saved from the air.

Before you buy... Clothes Dryers
As with most appliances, gas dryers usually cost more to purchase, but less to operate than their electric counterparts. Inversely, electric dryers cost more to operate and less to purchase. Look for models that have moisture and/or temperature sensors with an automatic shut-off or models with energy-efficient settings.
