I was cooking my beans on the hob this evening and, on my mission to
be greener in everything I do, wondered if it was greener to cook them
on the hob or in a microwave. On the one hand, microwaves are a big
waste of plastic / metal etc and are difficult to recycle, on the
other hand, it takes a lot of energy to warm up my cooker hob and
therefore contributes to Co2 emissions. What's the right thing to do?
I am on a personal mission to become a whole lot friendlier to my enironment. I'm fed up of living in chronic air polution 'smog' and seeing streams in the forest that look like bubble baths because of people using too many products. That's just the tip of the (melting) iceburg, but if anyone has any tips on how I can do it, I would be really greatful! I already recycle, walk where possable and take public transport everywhere. I buy local produce from the farmers markets too (yummy and good for the local econemy!)
Thanks people!
