Thats no joke.If you cut back on your showering time, not only would you be helping to save the planet but you also may find yourself with a lot more free time for other things. Atlantic journalist James Hamblin did the full calculation and found that if the average person spends 20 minutes a day washing themselves this adds up to over 12,000 hours over a lifetime. You could write five novels in that timeHow to shower fasterNow Hamblin actually stopped showering for a month to see how much time he would save. That probably isnt necessary but there are a few ways to cut back on your shower time, especially if it is making you late for work.1. Make it colder mid-showerOf course, if you are in the middle of the heat wave like much of the country right now, a lukewarm shower doesnt too bad. But in mid-winter this will definitely make you much more efficient and help you get out of the shower way faster.2. Moisturize in the showerMany people like to do this in an elaborate post-shower ceremony but you could save so much time if you do it while you are in there.3. Time it to musicDo you like to sing in the shower? Then create a short-ish shower playlist with your favorite tunes and get out the minute it is over.BONUS for the Earth If it takes a while for your shower to get hot, then collect the cold water in a bucket and use itto water plants, acco rding to Home Water Works.
