Oct 16, 2008 BANG FOR THE BITE If 10,000 Biters air-dry their dishes, in a year it'll have the same CO2-reducing effect as planting 3,343 trees. COCKTAIL FACT Josephine Cochrane invented the modern dishwasher in 1886 because she was fed up with servants who chipped her fine china. (This is exactly why we like our dishwashers too.)

The BiteNot if you turn off your dishwasher's drying cycle. Just flip a switch and watch energy savings come 'round, again and again.The Benefits Soaking up cash savings. Expect to bank $25 per year on your electricity bill. Putting a damp-er on power use. You'll reduce the energy your dishwasher uses by 15%-50%. More slowly but surely, your dishes will still dry. Promise. Personally SpeakingHeather used to have one of those old dishwashers that plugged into the sink, ran for two hours, and didn't have a no-dry option. She couldn't imagine how long it would take if she had to wait for the drying cycle as well, so she just opened the door to shut it down before the dryer started. Wanna Try? If there's no off switch for your dishwasher's drying cycle, just open the door when the cycle starts.
