    The five  minute shower is a real challenge for me. I am very conscious of conserving and recycling in all aspects of my life and encouraging my family to do the same, but a warm shower is my "me time" and is my biggest environmental vice! I have reduced my shower time by about half but am not quite consistently to five minutes yet. I'll keep working on it because it's important and I can't expect others to do it if I don't.

      Me too!  But then I forgive myself because I only shower every 3 days or so.  Shorter hair has made that possible for me.

      I can totally relate to this. I feel that I'm an environmentally conscious person, so I allow myself a little bit more time in the shower. I can imagine how this would be a challenge, keep it up!
