Stephanie Danek 4/22/2021 9:32 PMI will admit that I always take long showers. I feel like showering is a time to relax and separate from what is going on in your life. Taking long showers may feel nice but the issue is that I am wasting thousands of gallons of water. So for my ecochallenge I have made it a point to take short showers. I have cut out aspects such as listening to music when I shower because I feel like it lengthens the process for me. This has helped incredibly. I am no longer distracted and have taken shorter showers while still being clean. I am also saving gallons of fresh clean water by doing this. All of that water I have been wasting could have been put towards something better than just going down the drain.-
Kalli Olson 4/26/2021 7:36 PMHey Stephanie! I also find myself taking long showers at times because like you said it's taking a break from the stress in your life. I have also noticed that I take longer showers when I listen to music so that was a good idea for you to get rid of. I also take faster showers when the water is colder! -
Kayla Gerber 4/26/2021 7:05 PMHi Stephanie! Shortening showers can be really challenging. I think your advise about not listening to music while in the shower is a great tip. I think more people need to be paying attention to the length of their showers.
