Switching To A Clothesline by Brooke Mountney - Student Corespondant Stockdale P.S. - I wish to write to you about how you can make the Earth, our home, a better place to live in. Before I let you read my article, I have to remind you that this will not only help save our slowly failing world, but it will help you in many ways!
I have decided to let you know how clotheslines can make a change in our world! First off I’ll explain to you how they can help you! If you install a clothesline in your backyard, even if it’s a small, city backyard, it will be sure to save you money! We can all relate to how dryers add up to a big fraction of the hydro bill right? Well if you’re getting tired of looking at that BIG number on your bill, switch to a clothesline. Also, while researching I found that the average amount of money you will and can save is more than $25.00/ month! Now, to go with the money issue, aren’t you tired of seeing lint on your clothes and then having to buy a "lint roller" to clean up that mess? When using the clothesline you will find that there is no lint residue left on your clothes and the fresh air scent is a beautiful smell! Plus you’re not adding toxic chemicals to our environment! Save money and be environmentally friendly!
