Time you gave your fridge some TLC?

It may seem a little daft, but getting the hoover out and giving your fridge coils the once over won’t just save you energy but money too!

The black pipe work on the rear of your fridge (the coils) is used to regulate the fridges temperature. When these get dusty, the fridge has to work that little bit harder to cool your food. When it does this it uses more energy and also could reduce the life of the appliance.

You have heard of Solar Power, Wind Power and Wave Power, but with England in the middle of one of the coldest winters ever recorded, could we make use of Snow Power?

A small town in Japan is doing just that and not just in the winter…

Check out this CNN report.

Could you make a Snow Powered Fridge to use for the next few weeks so that your regular fridge can be switched off? Just image the energy saving you would make while making use of all that free energy. Now thats low-carbon living…
