Over 20 percent of our gas consumption goes into heating the water in the kitchen or bathroom. An average shower requires about 65 liters of water. That's enough clean water to drink an entire month's worth of it. Shorter showering not only saves water and gas, but you will also benefit financially. A win-win situation! Challenge yourself, and other EveryMoovers, to take shorter showers from now on. Purchase a shower timer, or use a regular timer to track your shower time. Five minutes in the shower is more than enough to get properly clean. That way you'll save time, too!
