Drying Green

Back home in Arizona, we don't use our dryer (we have one ),but it's rare that we use it...We line dry ,here are a few reasons why


Saves money,uses zero greenhouse gas emissions (2 kg of greenhouse gas emissions from the average mechanical dryer per load), clothes smell "clothesline fresh" without using chemicals , less fabric wear and tear , clothes do not shrink, no static cling , clothes stay softer , less wrinkled,clothes dry more quickly , no risk of fire , no risk of toxic fumes, eliminates heating up the inside of a house , and my favorite reason... provides a source of exercise ; )

So you can imagine how excited we are to show off our elaborate ROTARY clothes line (w/ multiple lines) inside our house in Haifa !!! (right by the washer ) It's kind of a cage, completely enclosed with a bottom and huge screens on the out side. The lines are out side of the downstairs bathroom window - two of the windows open for easy access

YES the house has a dryer
