the real thing baby....

i am sipping away a coke - a coca cola. This goes against my whole health awareness campaign. But I am doing a service to planet earth. This particular can has been sitting in the fridge for two weeks now as our guests opted for alternative refreshments. So just moving the can out and setting it back in the cupboard would waste all that electricity used to keep it cool!

And we just can't have that!

Actually, a full fridge uses less energy than an empty fridge. Once it's cold, your can of Coke stays cold much more easily than the air that has now taken its place. And every time you open the fridge door, the air moves around, which makes things even worse.

But putting the can back in the cupboard would have been more wasteful. Now at least you got a nice drink ;)

You could've just washed it down the sink.
