Forty six years ago this month, I participated in the first Earth Day founded by United States Senator Gaylord Nelson from the great state of Wisconsin. I was a freshman in high school and I was also from Wisconsin. Our school, along with many other schools not only in Wisconsin but across the nation, participated in this event. It was estimated that over 20 million Americans participated in events that day. There were many different activities channeling human energy toward environmental issues. Our class was selected to pick up roadside trash while other classes planted trees and held discussions on how we could clean up air, land, and water in our country. It was a positive experience that has stayed with me all of these years and one I remember every April.

We are now celebrating the 46th year of this movement that continues to inspire and motivate people to action. Best Buy has teamed up with LG Studio Line to promote Energy Star certified refrigerators this year. One thing you can do to help the environment is to replace your old refrigerator with a ENERGY STAR certified refrigerator. There have been many recent improvements made with these new refrigerators in both insulation and compressors and this will help you to maximize both your energy and dollar savings. You can do all of this without sacrificing the features that you love!
Great Reasons to Replace Your Refrigerator Now
Preserve the environment.
Does the refrigerator you currently have make a lot of noise and have a life of its own? Does it to run day and night and never shut off? If so, you need to check out ENERGY STAR certified refrigerators. They use less energy and help us reduce our impact on the environment. Did you know that if all refrigerators sold in the United States were ENERGY STAR certified, the energy cost savings would grow to more than $400 million each year and 8 billion pounds of annual greenhouse gas emissions would be prevented, equivalent to the emissions from 750,000 vehicles? That would be a huge positive impact on our environment!
Reduce your energy bills.
No one likes to face those monthly utility bills. Refrigerators that are Energy Star are 9-10 percent more energy efficient than that old model that you have in your kitchen right now. There are a whopping 170 million refrigerator and freezers currently used in the United Stated today and over 60 million of them are over 10 years old. These older models are costing consumers 4.7 billion dollars a year in energy costs. WOW!
Did you know that by replacing your old refrigeration with a new ENERGY STAR certified refrigerator you could save between $35 – $300 a year? Check out this handy little ENERGY STAR Savings Calculator you can use that is designed to provide an estimate of the savings associated with replacing or removing an old refrigerator or freezer with a new ENERGY STAR certified model.

April Hammond says
April 19, 2016 at 7:27 amThat is so cool that you participated in the first Earth Day! I remember getting saplings to take home as a kid, I don’t think schools do that anymore. Having an energy efficient appliance is a great way to celebrate Earth Day every day of the year!

April 19, 2016 at 9:55 amI love the LG refrigerators. They seem so perfect and functional!
Akhil Sharma says
April 19, 2016 at 10:48 amGreat post!! I think we should only purchase electrical appliances that are Energy Star Certified; preferably 5 star rating. I know it is impossible to replace all items at once; however, we can do this when we need replacements. LG is a reliable brand. One more thing; the upfront cost of energy star certified appliances is more, but it is still beneficial as it incorporates long term saving benefits.
Jenn says
April 19, 2016 at 12:02 pmLG has such amazing products! We are updating our appliances and this is one I am currently seriously considering. I love the sleek look!
Liz Mays says

Michele says
April 19, 2016 at 2:54 pmWhat beautiful appliances-but I would expect nothing else from LG!! I remember Earth Days from years past–I did everything from helping to clean rivers and streams and the sides of highways to helping out at Earth Day festivals–I was really good at getting signatures!!
Liz Mays says
April 19, 2016 at 4:42 pmThey sure make a pretty line of appliances, don’t they? I most definitely could use a new energy efficient fridge like this.

Amanda Love says
April 21, 2016 at 6:53 amThat is a really great refrigerator. I don’t have to replace anything in my house at the moment so I’m going to hold off on this refrigerator even though I really love it. Getting one that is energy certified however does reduce your energy bill.
