This is a zero waste tip that I feel is painfully obvious and could even seem like something not worth mentioning, but a shorter shower is a great way to conserve water, time, and money. Taking shorter showers falls under my "needs improvement" category, along with flossing and catching the shower water while the water warms up. Reminder that I'm in no way perfect...there is always room for improvement and some things may be easy for me, challenging for you, and vice versa. Once I'm in a warm shower, I could stay there all day. I don't of course, but I don't know for certain how long I am in there. I thought about timing it today, but that thought occurred to me while I was already in the shower. I will time the next one to see, although I have a feeling that knowing I am timing myself will cause me to take a shorter shower. If I am over five minutes, then my goal will be to reduce shower time to five minutes
I had fun googling "shorter shower". Below are some of my favorite images. I noticed that many of the shorter shower memes were from cities in California or universities. Both urging residents to take shorter showers to save water, and I'm guessing the universities would like to save money. Use whatever motivating factor works for you, although I see time, money, and resources as inextricably linked.
Do you take a five minute shower?
