    85 dollars spread over the course of 365 days is .23 cents a day. 45 dollars spread over 365 days is .12 cents a day. Omg. A whole .11 cents of saving in energy costs. Whoopdy doo! But yes if you turn it into a percentage that number seems way way bigger! 50% savings! A whole 40 bucks a year!

    It’s funny because energy costs is just one small aspect of refrigeration.

    Did you know that fridges made in the 80s and 90s leaked far less freon than ones made in the last 10 years?

    The environmental impact of modern refrigeration is staggering compared to that of about 40 years ago.
