Each lavatory visit emits 5.6 lbs of CO2 due to energy used flushing the toilet (airplanes use powered vacuums, not gravity like toilets at home).  Ideal Bite Easy Scale: [10] (1-10 scale, 1 = Difficult and costly, 10 = simple and no cost or little effort) Impact Scale: [1] (1-5 scale, 1 = Minor but worthwhile, 5 = Strong impact on environment) Category: Transportation User Comments Be the first to add a comment ...

Website Translation Use drip irrigation or soaker hoses When watering your flower beds and gardens, regular sprinklers are less effective, especially during hotter days. Often times the water will evaporate before it even hits the ground. In addition, the ability to get water directly where it is needed, into the soil for the roots to absorb, is far superior than regular sprinklers There are 152 actions on this website that you can take to help save the earth!
