Have you ever wondered how you could conserve energy and water while doing your laundry? The future of clothing-washing is here! An innovation by Stephen Burkinshaw of the University of Leeds, this waterless washing machine is said to be able to wash an entire single load of laundry with just one cup of water and detergent!
The 'Xeros' washing machine brings forth the important idea of resource conservation that is prominent today, and something each homeowner should truly consider. This particular machine utilizes plastic beads as opposed to the gallons of water used to do laundry each time, and if you’re questioning if they’re environment-friendly, they’re reusable too! If you’re looking to make a positive impact on our environment, this would be a great step.
