I definitely stop to smell the roses more walking and biking to work! I find myself stopping and taking pictures of nature and really kind of meditating on my commute.

REFLECTION QUESTIONWater 5-Minute ShowersFive minute showers are an impressive step toward reducing your water footprint. What is the next step you can take?
Jessica Coe 10/04/2018 11:27 AMOne thing I noticed, when I started to me more observant about my water usage, was that I sometimes leave the sink on when brushing my teeth. Now I am focusing on brushing my teeth without wasting more water!-
Melissa Hayes 10/04/2018 2:36 PMI don't always take 5 minute showers, but I try. I agree that trying to take shorter shower makes us more observant about water usage. I now turn off water when I'm brushing my teeth. -
