Getting savvy about standby power
By Noah Buhayar, Fellow, Rocky Mountain Institute (www.rmi.org) | Ever wonder how much electricity your household appliances use when they're supposedly off—in "standby" or "ready" mode?

It turns out that these "vampire" loads are gradually sucking away power—a lot of power.How to rid yourself of stuff that can't go in the recycling bin

I am in need of an eco friendly dishwashing detergent and laundry detergent. I don’t really want to order some online, but I haven’t been finding any in the stores I visit. Can anyone recommend something that isn’t too expensive and that I can find at a local store - I live in the Central Valley in California, we have all the “normal” stores like Walmart, Target, Trader Joe’s, Safeway, Raley’s, etc.Top Brands
