Shorter Showers
Save 350 lbs of carbon
Overview: What does water have to do with carbon? Plenty! Just think about how much energy it takes to collect, filter, pump and heat the water.
Buy your family a shower 'timer' to keep everyone on the new schedule.
Instructions: Lessen your time in the shower by just 2 minutes. (Even if it means asking your kids to cut their Miley Cyrus repertoire in half.)
Note: Complete the action above, then download, print and fill out a coupon. Have your child turn in the completed coupon at school.
