Two minutes in the shower
Did you know that every two minutes you spend in the shower uses as much water as someone in Africa uses in a whole day? This statistic really made me think about imbalances in the world and also about how wasteful I’ve been with water.
I hope you will join me in cutting back on your water usage. Not only will you be helping to conserve a natural resouce, you’ll save $! Now I turn the water off when I’m shaving, using a body scrub, or just catch myself daydreaming when I should get out. Nobody loves a hot shower more than I do, but, if people in Africa can get by on so little, I sure as heck can do my part.
