Let’s get to the point, actual action makes a change…this information is only going to make a difference for the planet and water conservation if we all add a few Eco Habits to our daily lives.

maybe you just need to understand some facts that may startle you into enacting daily water eco-habits into you and your families lives.
According to the Glen Canyon Institute only 2% of the Earths water supply is Fresh water and 1% of that is frozen. Leaving the water running while brushing your teeth uses approxitamely 5 GALLONS!   A 5 minute shower uses 15-25 gallons a 10 minute over 40 gallons. 40 GALLONS!  So you can save over a gallon/minute by not shaving in the shower while it’s running.

20 GALLONS SAVED! 

From 50waystohelp #3 states rinsing dishes before loading the automatic dishwasher uses 20 GALLONS!  if you’re going th use that much water rinsing why not just wash them right there! or stop the excesssive rinsing.    And #18 states even more alarming stats than the the Glen Canyon group which makes more sense that for every 2 minutes you shorten your shower you will save up to 10 GALLONS! wow

While this approach is convenient and accessible, it requires careful handling to avoid errors such as pulling the strip too tightly or leaving it too loose. To improve accuracy, it is best to measure multiple times and ensure the strip sits comfortably without compressing the skin.
