Washing and Drying made Greener (electrolux Blog tour)

Growing up, I was used to having to hang the clothes up on the clothesline. I often tell people that my family was green long before it was "fashionable." However, I don't have that luxury anymore because I moved to the "city" and I live in an apartment.

Having an ecofriendly washer and dryer is definitely a priority. How often do we say that saving the planet seems to be expensive... All the time. However, it is imperative that we spend the upfront cash to make sure that we have a safe clean environment to pass on to our children. With that being said, electrolux has a solution:

Electrolux and Kelly Ripa have teamed up to introduce an eco-friendly front-load washer and dryer in a truly vibrant shade – “Kelly Green.” The new limited edition shade, an upbeat green designed to pack a visual punch, was inspired by the great outdoors and self-proclaimed eco-Mom Kelly Ripa. Here’s a quote from Kelly herself: “I love green … the color green and the act of living green,” said Ripa. “What better place to make a simple, every day difference than in the laundry room? Kelly Green is a gorgeous shade, and just by using the new Electrolux high-efficiency washer and dryer you can save energy and use less water. How green is that?” Just in time for Earth day, Electrolux kicks off its virtual flower garden campaign to drive awareness and raise funds for Global Green USA.
