• Use only as much water( if hand washing) as needed, and use cold water. Then save that water( if you can) to reuse for plants or something that doesn%26#039;t require clean water.If you are serous about being energy efficient, get a new dishwasher that is Energy Star approved. Appliances with the Energy Star label use less energy/water than normal appliances.
