Day 31: Think About Other Cooking Options

I found this great tip in the Seattle PI (http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/athome/358510_green12.html)

“Generating enough electricity to cook for an hour in a standard electric oven creates 2.7 pounds of carbon dioxide. Here's a list of what can do it for less: toaster oven, 1.3 pounds over 50 minutes; slow cooker, 0.9 pounds over seven hours; and microwave, 0.5 pounds over 15 minutes.”

This is amazing to me!
