Beer fridges 'bad for the nation' (+video) - News - Dominion Post
Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority monitoring and research manager Robert Tromop said with 1.8 fridges per household, many people had one fridge too many.
Most second fridges were inefficient, unnecessary and should be discarded, he said.
"I understand the emotive connection to beer fridges, but right now you're not helping yourself, you're not helping the country."
