This article from consumer reports supports not being green or eco friendly, since warm or hot water laundry uses more energy. I only ever use cold water with my washing machine. I leave the door open after my last cycle for a day to fully let the washer air out. I've never had a mildew problem since i let it air out in between cycles. Seasonally i follow the vinegar suggestions above just in case soap builds up. Also, about a year ago i switched to all natural soap and haven't had the soap build up issues at all.
