 .p121 Not all clothes need to be washed every time we wear them
  . each wash reduces garment's life span - let it air out
 .p124 wash t-shirts and jeans inside out, protect colored side from abrasion
 .p125 "make colors brighter" -> products with cellulase enzyme -> detaches diffusive microfibrils after several washings
 .p125 specially formulated laundry detergents for black fabrics
 .p150 washing dishes by hand consumes 3 times more water than a dishwasher
 .p152 Dishwasher mechanical action 85% of cleaning, then water temperature, then surfactants in detergent
 .p154 higher bacterial contamination in hand-washed dishes, usually from dish-towel drying
 .p154 Eco-mode dishwasher consumes 0.8 kWh despite lasting for four hours
 .p154 rinsing dishes before putting in dishwasher is pointless and uses more water than necessary
 .p155 face dishes into the spray - tilt glasses and point plates towards sprayer
 .p161 Use detergents with certifications: Green Seal, ECOLOGO, or EPA Safer Choice
 .p162 rinse agents complicated mixtures, not "make at home"
 .p163 filter should be removed and cleaned regularly
 .p163 tomato residues troublesome, pigments not water soluble, absorbed by plastic in same dishwasher load
 .p163 unblock holes in rotating arms with a toothpick

 .p165 multifunctional detergents or rinse aids protective against inorganic film deposits or glass dissolving
 .p166 [[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josephine_Cochrane | Josephine Garis Cochrane ]] patented the modern dishwasher in 1886.
 .p167 Hand-washing dishes responsible for 50% of home faucet water use
  . one dishwasher cycle uses 4 gallons, hand-washing uses 3 gallons per person per day
 . hand dish soaps: nonionic surfactants gentler to skin than anionic one, amphoteric surfactants even better
