If you do this action, you could earn another 6 points [add to points] You don't have to flush the toilet after every use. Follow the saying "if it's yellow, let it mellow, if it's brown, flush it down!" We personally attest that this concept can prevent 50-75% of flushes. Afraid to take such a bold risk? Follow these tips: 1) Communicate the importance to everyone in the household, so there is no confusion on why others aren't flushing. 2) Keep track of the number of flushes and no-flushes, as a reminder of how much water is being saved 3) Leave an air freshener in the bathroom, if odor is a concern. 4) Flush when company comes over, if you are concerned by what they might think (or explain it to them, maybe they'll agree it's a good idea).  Treehugger.com: The selective flush Easy Scale: [9] (1-10 scale, 1 = Difficult and costly, 10 = simple and no cost or little effort) Impact Scale: [3] (1-5 scale, 1 = Minor but worthwhile, 5 = Strong impact on environment) Category: Home User Comments Be the first to add a comment ...

It works well. It has kicked in many times when I got pulled away from the computer. You can also set the timings for work and non-work hours." hbomb7 on 7/4/2009 about the action Download software that reduces your computer power drain   Subscribe to RSS headline updates from:
