Ancient Veggie Times Tips to Green your Fridge

1. Ditch the plastic-go for glass containers
2. Upgrade and downsize your fridge, look for Energy Star label (isn't that getting revamped somehow)
3. Forget ice and water dispensers-use 14% of the energy
4. Fill it up
5. Leftovers-no more than 3-4 days
6. Keep it clean-naturally, baking soda & water or vinegar
7. Vacuum the coils
8. Check the seals
9. Keep fridge from hot spots-north or east wall is best & away from window or stove
10. 36-38 degrees, freezer at 0
