It got me thinking how much I dislike winter and
what I would be doing this winter to be a bit more eco friendly. By profession
I am a carpet cleaner, not an actually carpet cleaner like a Dyson, rather I am
in the carpet cleaning industry. We are always looking for ways to save energy,
use less water for what we do, and of course less heat. One of the new
technologies around?is the use of micro splitters instead of detergents,
similar to the wash at 30 ad campaigns you see on TV for washing clothes but
that's a completely different subject.
Okay so its still the middle of summer being July
at the time of this article being written. I was thinking how nice it is during
the summer months not to consume so much energy.
Hot water bottles are made from rubber, not the
most eco friendly material, however very durable and reusable. One bottle will
last you years so I'm not terribly concerned about the carbon footprint
considering the use one gets.
No one uses them anymore, these days
people?would rather pump up the radiators, heating the entire house
wasting energy. Well I say get me a hot water bottle and an extra blanket.
The gas is never on and the clothes line outside is
adequate for drying the clean clothes rather than the tumble dryer which is a
major sap on energy. We don't use a tumble dryer, we use a clothes horse in the
bedroom, I hate it.
Preparation is easy and you get to make a cup of
Horlicks with the left over water from the kettle. In the morning when the
water is cold, pour it into the pot plants, you see what I'm doing here?
Recyclage if that's even a word. Everyone can do their bit to save energy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], its
the small things in life that add up, you can start by ditching the electric
blanket and having the boiler burning full tilt.
Back to the point, heating,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], so I was thinking
whatever happened to the use of a hot water bottle?

Long live the hot water bottle, long live.
