Amazing that what was old is now new again and to find out that the whole world is actually hanging up their wash! We are so spoiled. I think we are slowly getting it. I have always loved hanging out wash. It gives a real rhythm to the day and certainly keeps one more in tune with nature.
Actually there are many places where you are not allowed to line dry laundry, which leads to increased pollution. You can visit http://www.laundrylist.org for more information on this issue.
You can also use a spin dryer to reduce tumble drying times by 30 minutes or more. Spin dryers use only a small fraction of the energy that a tumble dryer does. You can view spin dryers at http://www.laundry-alternative.com/drying.htm

My condo complex is so behind-the-times that there's actually a rule that we can't hang out laundry...
