新年足球：走向绿色

Whether or not you are watching football for New Year's Day, Buildipedia's Go Green Channel wishes you a very healthy 2010.

Here is a list of the Eagles' favorite environmental factoids:

* We each throw away our own weight in packaging every month.

* $1 out of every $11 Americans spend for food goes for packaging.

* In just one week of recycling, we can each save 17 trees.

*我们每个人产生每天4.5磅垃圾。

* Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run a TV for three hours - just about enough time to watch an Eagles game!

*最后你们ar 54 billion cans were recycled, saving energy equivalent to 15 million barrels of crude oil - America's entire gas consumption for one day! An aluminum can that is thrown away will still be a can 500 years from now!

* If every American recycled just one-tenth of their newspapers, we would save about 25,000,000 trees a year.

*约每分钟5-7加仑的水，一个标准的淋浴喷头用途。使用“低流量”淋浴喷头以帮助50％以上，减少水的使用。他们通常削减流量每分钟2.5加仑，或更小。

* Turn off the water faucet when brushing your teeth! This simple act can save 3-4 gallons of water every time you brush.

* Instead of loading up on bottled water, install a water filter on your home faucet. That $5 filter will give you 40,000 8-ounce glasses of purified tap water.

* A 60-watt incandescent bulb lasts about 750 hours; a fluorescent bulb with 1/3 the wattage will generate the same light and burn for 7,500 to 10,000 hours, lasting seven to ten years!

*如果每个美国家庭替换为ENERGY STAR紧凑型荧光灯泡只有一个灯泡，我们将足够的能量储存到光超过3万个家庭一年，相当于每年的能源成本将超过$ 6亿只，并防止温室气体相当于从公路上减少百万辆。

*发泡胶不能够循环利用。它永远不会解体，不能被制作成新的聚苯乙烯泡沫塑料。今天正在使用的泡沫塑料杯仍将在填埋从现在500年坐着。

*当谈到时间洗衣服，你可以通过切换到冷水降低你的能源使用和清洗成本降低一半。
