LG Electronics Joins ENERGY STAR "Flip Your Fridge" Campaign
LG has joined the US EPA as a national launch partner for the ENERGY STAR Flip Your Fridge promotion, encouraging American consumers to responsibly recycle their old refrigerator and upgrade to an ENERGY STAR certified fridge to reduce energy consumption.
On average, an old refrigerator could use nearly twice as much energy as a new ENERGY STAR refrigerator. If all refrigerators more than 15 years old were replaced with ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators, Americans would prevent more than 5.5 billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions annually, equivalent to the emissions from approximately 550,000 vehicles! In addition, you can increase the environmental benefit by properly recycling the old one. Many utilities are offering special offers and rebates on ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators – plus additional rebates to help recycle your old refrigerator.
