The Greenest Way to Dry Clothes

Because saving the planet shouldn’t mean living in a damp jumper.

🌬️ Drying Dilemmas: What’s the Eco-Friendliest Option?

In the battle of the drying methods, your choices are:

  • The Tumble Dryer (a power-hungry beast)

  • The Clothes Horse (a tripping hazard with a slow burn)

  • The Washing Line (good luck in December)

  • The new hero: The Heat Pump Dryer

  • And a supporting role from the Dehumidifier

So which one wins for the environment, your energy bills, and your sanity?

⚖️ Drying Methods Compared

MethodEnergy UseEco RatingProsCons
Tumble Dryer🔴 High❌Fast, convenientExpensive, high CO₂ emissions
Heat Pump Dryer🟡 Medium✅✅Efficient, gentle on clothesSlower, expensive upfront
Clothes Horse🟢 None✅✅✅Free to run, silentNeeds ventilation, slow
Washing Line🟢 None✅✅✅✅Sun & wind poweredWeather dependent
Dehumidifier🟡 Low–Med✅✅Speeds up indoor dryingSmall energy use

🌞 Best Practice Tips

  • Dry outside whenever possible: Sunlight kills bacteria and freshens clothes naturally

  • Use a clothes horse + dehumidifier combo in winter for low energy impact

  • Avoid overloading dryers – they run less efficiently when crammed

  • Clean the filters – blocked dryers waste even more energy

  • Never dry clothes directly on radiators – it adds moisture to the air and wastes heat

Final Thought

The greenest way to dry your clothes is the one that uses the least energy and makes use of what’s already there — the sun, the air, and time.

Your clothes (and your power bill) will thank you.

Caffeine With a Conscience: Sustainable Coffee at Home

  Caffeine With a Conscience: Sustainable Coffee at Home ( How to keep your brew strong but your footprint light ) For many of us, coffee is less a drink and more a survival mechanism. But behind every comforting cup is an industry that comes with a hefty environmental and social cost. From deforestation to exploitative labour , the true price of coffee can be far higher than what you pay at the till. The good news? You don’t have to give it up. You just need to drink it smarter. The Hidden Cost of Coffee Coffee production is linked to deforestation, water waste , and pesticide use . Global demand encourages intensive farming that depletes soils and biodiversity . Billions of single-use cups and pods end up in landfill every year. Your morning pick-me-up doesn’t have to be part of the problem. Choose Better Beans Look for certifications that mean something: Fairtrade : Farmers get a fairer deal. Rainforest Alliance : Supports biodiversity and sustainab...

Using Ecosia: The Search Engine That Plants Trees

  Using Ecosia: The Search Engine That Plants Trees ( Click. Search. Plant. Repeat. ) Imagine if every time you googled something, you planted a tree. No, it’s not some kind of green-tech fantasy — it’s Ecosia , a real search engine that uses its ad revenue to fund global reforestation projects. And all it takes is changing your browser’s homepage. What Is Ecosia? Ecosia is a free, privacy-respecting search engine based in Germany. It works just like Google or Bing, but with a twist: They use 100% of their profits to plant trees. So far, they've funded over 180 million trees in places like: Brazil Burkina Faso Madagascar Indonesia Kenya All you have to do is search the web. That’s it. You search — they plant. How It Works Every time you search on Ecosia, the platform earns revenue from clicks on sponsored search results (just like Google). Roughly 45 searches = 1 tree . The money goes to vetted reforestation projects with a focus on: Native bi...

Welcome to the world of Terracycle – where the plastics that haunt your kitchen finally get a second chance. 🧟 The Problem: Zombie Plastics Some plastics refuse to die.
