Floss / quick showers
The two newest addition to the list are "Floss each day for a year", and, with Earth Day close by, "3 minute showers for a year". After having three cavities this year it's probably a good idea to get in the habit of flossing... like most people, I probably average once or twice a week at best.
Here are some interesting facts that I've learned about water usage:
15 minute shower = 150 litres 10 minute shower = 100 litres 5 minute shower = 50 litres 3 minute shower = 30 litres 2 minute shower = 20 litres
bath = 150 litres = 15 minute shower
Just for fun, I've calculated the difference in water usage comparing the adult population of the US having one bath a day for a month VS having a 2 minute shower each day for a month:
220 million adults:
2 minute shower = 1.32 trillion litres of water
bath = 10 trillion litres of water |
