Create Your Own Action

The Cold Shower Challenge

After tracking my overall BTU's used I was surprised of how many are used in only 10 minutes of a hot shower. I feel like this could be the most productive way for me to cut down on my energy usage.

    I chose the challenge of taking cold showers because I knew it was actually going to be a challenge for me and make quite a big impact as heating water uses lots of energy. Over the last few days although the showers have been far from comfortable, I have noticed that I have definitely been conserving energy and water because my time in the shower has been reduced due to the fact that the water is so cold. If I could somehow learn to get used to taking a cold shower maybe I could make an even greater impact after the challenge is over.
