Dad: Gracie, people don't understand how hard things used to be. Dad: Sure, we can be green and throw out the washing machine... but then we'd have to load up the dirty clothes, drive the car to the river, and wash everything with rocks! Gracie: I'd never do that. Dad: Exactly! Gracie: I'd take the city bus to save gas.

If I take a bath, I pollute the water.
If I don´t, I pollute the air.

She would never use non-eco-friendly detergent. Her bigger issue, if she lives in LA or similar (why do I assume that? Maybe because I grew up there?), will be finding a river within bus distance, much less a clean one. Remember, Gracie, don’t get your hands near your mouth when washing, less you contract giardia.

The clothes dryer is more environmentally unfriendly than the washer. If your weather and space permit, hang a clothesline. You’ll also save a lot on your electricity bill.

Washing clothes in the river pollutes the river with soap.
