Calling all Gardeners and their gardens!
The Bayview Village Annual Garden Tour was again such a blooming
success in 2007 that we are already making plans for 2008. The date has been set for June 22, 2008
and we want to include you. This is a wonderful opportunity to share the
experience of your garden with the Bayview Village Community.
We are looking for gardens to be part of our special day on
June 22, 2008. If you are interested
please contact Mary Anderson at 416-229-0094.
Plant to participate in 2008.
Green Dishwashing
Did you know? : A normal dishwasher uses
41 litres of water per cycle. Five minutes of rinsing dishes under a faucet
uses up to 95 litres of water. Wise
use of an electric dishwasher may be more efficient. Only use your dishwasher when it is
full. Do not use ‘rinse and hold cycle’ for a few dishes.
As much as 80 percent of the energy your
dishwasher uses goes to heat water. Check your guide to find the shortest
cycles (e.g., china) – and use the short cycles for everything but the
dirtiest dishes. Short cycles use less energy and work just as well. Air-dry
your dishes – you can save 10% of the cost of operation and you
won’t have to deal with those ‘too hot to handle dishes’.
Don’t Just Throw It Out
Batteries,
‘Regular’ light bulbs, Compact fluorescent bulbs, and Fluorescent
tubes – all should be disposed of carefully – they should NEVER be
thrown into the garbage. What
should you do? Drop them off at one of the city’s Household Hazardous
Waste Depots (call for times: 3350
