Save Water When Washing Dishes
Dishwashers can save water — if used wisely. I will only run the dishwasher when it’s full and skip the pre-rinse to reduce water and energy use. If I don't have a dishwasher, I will turn off the tap as often as possible while washing dishes.

Vrushali Fernandes 4/09/2025 10:11 AMSince we are in summers i ensure a big serving of watermelon and musk melons are eaten throughout the day, Mangoes are in too. Watermelon is my most fav fruit, i can eat it everyday. Fruits are easy to digest lighter and freshly available. This is surely saving the planet by not killing animals to be eaten since i am a veg i am happy about this choice.
