The cleaning fan also said you should hang your clothes to dry when you can instead of putting them in a tumble dryer.

She said: “Wash your clothes less and hang them to dry.”
“I don't know where we got the idea that you can only wear your clothes once, but on average you can wear your shirts and pants two to four times before needing a wash”.
