Discussion for "Monitor the length of your showers and reduce the time by 1 minute."

Description

Monitor the length of your showers and reduce the time by 1 minute. Do you really know if you take a 5, or a 10, or a 20 minute shower? Note the actual time you spend in the shower on average and try to shave off 10% of it (so, 1 minute off a 10 minute shower). Remember to include the time when the water is running before you actually get in the shower, too. Shaving time off your shower reduces the amount of hot water consumed and the energy needed to replenish the hot water in a water heater tank.

A good way to keep track of the amount of time you've been in the shower is to play music and keep count of the number of songs you listen to.
