Do Just One Thing
Skip the pre-rinse before loading your dishwasher --modern machines are designed to handle food residue. Simply scrape leftover food into the trash or compost and place dishes directly in the rack. Pre-rinsing can use up to 20 gallons of water per load, so skipping it can save hundreds of gallons each month. Let your dishwasher do the work and you’ll save both water and energy.
