One-Cup Washing Machine

Gizmodo: One Wash, One Cup of Water: Nearly Waterless Washing Machine Invented

Here’s a really exciting innovation: a washing machine that only needs one cup of water to wash clothes. The Xeros washing machine uses a cup of water and about 44 lbs. of plastic chips to wash and almost completely dry laundry. Who knows if it will really work for home use, or how well it will work, but it’s still a really interesting idea for water conservation.

Isn’t plastic less renewable than water? Confused on how this will help the environment. Maybe it’ll just lower your water bill.
