Going Green
One of the most interesting facts related to green living was a quiz I found via National Geographic, a quiz all of us should do either for fun or at least as a sign of awareness.
How much do you really know about going green?
1. Which uses less water? washing a full load of dishes by hand or in the dishwasher?
a. by hand
b. in the dishwasher
Correct answer: b. in the dishwasher
Hand washing dishes can use up to 50% more water than a water-saving, energy-efficient dishwasher. However, dishwashers made before 1994 use more water than current models.

I found this to be a nice little quiz, however, I only ended up scoring 70% thanks to some hard questions on exact percentages. It does a good job of highlighting some eco facts that I assume most haven’t considered yet.
