How much electricity do clothes dryers consume around the world? In the US 75% are electric, 25% gas. Not able to find a ready estimate. Seems like one of the dumbest emissions sources. Air drying works fine, and the function seems mostly aesthetic (eliminating clotheslines)

If you want to trade your time for a smaller individual footprint more power to you but that's not where we'll mitigate the climate crisis. The US industrial sector emits as much CO2 as every household in the world combined and has INCREASED emissions by 6% since 1990.
