    Water 5-Minute Showers
    Five minute showers are an impressive step toward reducing your water footprint. What is the next step you can take?

    Instead of taking a fifteen minute shower daily.  I have been taking five minute showers this has been cutting the water use by almost half.  Not only that by reducing the amount of hot water used in the shower can conserve water as well as the energy used to heat the water.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use a Reusable Mug
    Maybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reusable one, but it's just hard to make the switch. What stands in your way of making this a habit? By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?
