Energy Star appliances

I was reading the other day that some people were learning to live without a refrigerator. I can't quite figure out how you can save the planet turning off a device that only uses $70 worth of electricity in a year! That's all one of the new Energy Star refrigerators use each year! Much better than the old kind. All of the energy star appliances perform this way so make sure you look for them when shopping. I don't think they have energy star ovens yet, but every thing else you can find. One of the big mistakes people make though, when they get that new refrigerator, is putting the old one in the garage to keep beer in. That kinda defeats the purpose. Don't mean to say cold beer isn't a good thing, just look for another energy star fridge for the garage too! And then just to make sure you're doing your part to save the planet, maybe turn off cable news for a year, that ought to do it...
