I WONDER - How Can I Save Water?

Showers are more environmentally friendly than baths, using less water. However, they still consume up to 2.5 gallons per minute. A 10-minute shower uses 25 gallons, while the average shower lasts 8 minutes. Reducing shower time to 5 minutes can save 7.5 gallons each time, promoting water conservation.
